I'm interested to know a bit more, because I use Zen as my ISP although
FTTC rather than FTTP. Zen supplied me with a Fritz!Box 7530 and I just
tested whether I could enable port 25 forwarding, and yes I can. So
have they gone backwards with their FTTP offering?

I'd be tempted to call Zen technical support and ask them about it.
I've found them helpful. They might be able to find some way to fix it
(a new router maybe? :)

Cheers, Dave
