It is simple........Use another provider!

It is quite simple, if you are a business and you absolutely need email to survive......run your own mail server! Simple as that!

A server for email can be had for very cheap at some data centers. It doesn't even have to be a powerful box, only one that can run either Windows or Linux, personally, I would go for Linux since you can pretty much install anything you want for free.

For example, Exim for SMTP, CPPOP for POP3, and UWIMAPD for IMAP. All free software!

actually that would be a good idea, if it didn't break the contract/eula for the internet connection, and their blocking of ports used to run mailservers off your pc or networked pc.

and if they actually see you running a mail server, your connection is either throttled, or shut down.

I think web mail from an alternate provide would be a cheaper option than their own mail server.

And you have to know the filtering is being done to know that you have a problem. The filtering was implemented without adequate notice to customers, and not on an opt-in basis.

In the USA, customers shouldn't have to pay additional costs to work around systemically racially discriminatory vendor company policies.
