Hi Dani,

time passes, and the problem is still unresolved.

I've tried to reproduce it on a Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit
machine. Using Emacs 25.1.

Your example ftp.mozilla.org is unresponsive. So I've tried to open

<PATH-TO-EMACS>\emacs.exe -Q /ftp:ftp <at> ftp.gnu.org:/README

It works. There is no special ftp client on this machine, just the
default MS ftp client 6.1.7601.17514 (still not able to run passive
mode). And I run it from behind a NATed router.

So I don't know what else I shall do in order to reproduce it. Could
you, pls, check with a recent Emacs whether you still experience
problems?

Best regards, Michael.
