Cloud Accounts with Port 25 Open
AWS restricts outbound port 25 (SMTP) on all EC2 instances by default to prevent spam. While you can request removal through AWS Support, approval takes days and is not guaranteed. For immediate SMTP access, Cloud Accounts offers open-port accounts on DigitalOcean, Linode, IBM Cloud, Kamatera, and Atlantic.Net.
About This Feature
Port 25 is the standard port used for SMTP communication between mail servers. Cloud providers restrict it on new accounts to prevent newly provisioned servers from being used immediately for spam campaigns — a common abuse pattern. To run a legitimate mail server (Postfix, Exim, Sendmail), SMTP relay, or bulk email infrastructure, you need port 25 to be open on your cloud account. Cloud Accounts sells pre-verified accounts from providers where this restriction is already lifted.
Recommended Account
- 3 droplets, port 25 open

Yes — AWS can remove the port 25 restriction via a support request, but it requires a detailed justification and takes 1–5 business days. Not all requests are approved.
