Puerto25— SMTP relay

TCP 25 transporta correo SMTP, normalmente entre servidores de correo. Los clientes deben usar el punto de envío especificado por su proveedor.

Registry assignments, software defaults and local listeners are different things. A port number alone does not identify or secure a service.

Configuration and troubleshooting

Distinga la entrega entrante, la retransmisión saliente y el envío desde clientes. Revise los registros de correo y las reglas de salida del proveedor antes de suponer un conflicto de puertos local.

Important limitations

No configure un servidor de retransmisión abierto. Que un socket sea accesible no indica nada sobre la política de destinatarios ni sobre la entrega correcta del correo.

Read-only checks: run on the server host

Choose the commands for your OS. Check TCP and UDP separately. No result is not a lasting availability guarantee; inspect host and container separately.

Linux

sudo ss -ltnp 'sport = :25'

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -iTCP:25 -sTCP:LISTEN

Windows PowerShell

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 25 -State Listen

Preguntas frecuentes

What is port 25 used for?

Port 25 sits in the Email & Messaging category. This page lists the registered purpose and the software commonly associated with it; to see what is actually listening on a specific machine, check the process with ss/netstat.

Is port 25 TCP or UDP?

The registered protocol on this page is TCP. The same number behaves independently on each protocol: TCP may be listening while UDP is idle, so check them separately.

How do I check if port 25 is in use?

On Linux: sudo ss -tlnp 'sport = :25' for an exact port match. On macOS: sudo lsof -nP -iTCP:25 -sTCP:LISTEN. On Windows PowerShell: Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 25 -State Listen. A listener counts as confirmed only when you can see the bind address and process name; without root/admin you will not see other users' processes.

Is port 25 secure? Should I open it in my firewall?

A port number has no inherent security — it depends on whether the listening service is correctly configured and whether it needs exposure at all. Keep loopback/internal-only services firewalled; where public access is required, pair it with source restrictions, VPN or authentication. The caution section on this page lists port-specific risks.
