O Canada! > Canadian > Shaw > TELUS vs SHAW for Personal Home Hosting.

But shaw does SMTP outgoing which really makes life harder for using my mailserver (well not really, I just also run it on port 587, problem solved).

So? Set your outgoing mail exchange to push through shawmail.vc.shawcable.net. TELUS also blocks outgoing SMTP (or they did).

Problem solved.

Not if my mailserver is extremely secure and uses SPF records and domain keys which state only mail coming from XXX server us legit, so people don't fake my e-mail addresses (as well as my clients). I used a paid SSL cert to encrypted login to mail server and SMTP for sending. 587 works fine for now, and is a SMTP spec port.
