derrick@llama:~$ host sirsinew.lib.ncsu.edu
sirsinew.lib.ncsu.edu has address 152.1.24.23
derrick@llama:~$ telnet sirsinew.lib.ncsu.edu 25
Trying 152.1.24.23...

derrick@llama:~$ ping sirsinew.lib.ncsu.edu

derrick@llama:~$ sudo nmap -P0 -p25 sirsinew.lib.ncsu.edu

Starting Nmap 4.20 ( http://insecure.org ) at 2008-01-06 10:29 EST
Interesting ports on sirsinew.lib.ncsu.edu (152.1.24.23):
PORT STATE SERVICE
25/tcp filtered smtp

Nmap finished: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 2.211 seconds


Either:
1. mail server is down
2. firewall is blocking incoming connections
3. this server doesn't actually accept mail

just guessing, since I know nothing about ncsu's network

yeah it wouldn't really matter if she hadn't sent me an email saying she was going to charge me for the books I had. I had sent the books back a few weeks ago and was trying to let her or him know but kept getting kicked back.

forward your bounce e-mail to help@ncsu.edu, and ask that it be brought to the attention of the library systems staff. they'll be the ones to get it resolved. let me know if you have any questions.
