according to http://help.ovh.com/EmailConfiguration

your SMTP server name should be : smtp.yourdomain.com or directly, our server name: ns0.ovh.net -Port of the outgoing server: 587 (instead of port 25 because this port is filtered by many ISP)

In another place (in french) they say it is Outgoing server: The sending server e-mail: SSL0.OVH.NET Outgoing Server Port: The port outgoing server: 465 or 587

So I really wonder if they know what they are doing. Or if language is a barrier.

What VPN?. many commercial VPN providers block SMTP from their service as VPN's make great SPAM relay points.
