Hello Janis!

If that port is listed in the nodelist, ALL FidoNet nodes should be able to 
connect to it to deliver mail.

If those ports are not available to ALL FidoNet nodes, they should not be 
listed in the FidoNet nodelist.

I would appreciate it if you would respond to the multiple emails I've sent 
you regarding this.
