Select the apropriate port/protocol to check your host on. If the protocol is not mentioned in the list, you can also use the Other option to enter to port number.

For protocols marked with an *, Servers Alive will do more then just connect to the port. Servers Alive will analyse the return it gets from the host.
What will Servers Alive see as being a good return value?
FTP (port 21) 220
SMTP (port 25) 220
POP3 (port 110) +OK
NNTP (port 119) 200
In future releases of Servers Alive, more extended protocol checking could be added.
