vtext.com smtp servers close as soon as I try to send text

<Discussion moved from All Things Community to Messaging for more exposure.>

opening a port 25 session with smtp-bb.vtext.com send the following message:

554 njbrspamp10.vtext.com

Then it closes immediately.

Is it possible I'm blacklisted?  My Windstream smtp server is also not able to reach the vtext smtp server.

Good morning tom_mcg,

I use Vtext.com very often and I see how inconvenient it can be not being able use when you need it. I just tested and I can confirm that our Vtext.com page has no issues at this time. Please go to http://Vtext.com and test. Keep us posted.
