uhm, by blocking port 25 they are telling users they cannot use external PAY email services and they MUST use ISP provided account. thats absolutely ridiculous.
Bullsh*t... With Earthlink/Mindspring, who blocks outbound port 25, you can use any e-mail address, account, reply-to, etc, etc you want to. All you HAVE to use is smtp.earthlink.net, smtp.mindspring.com, or smtpauth.earthlink.net to SEND messages. What is the harm in that ??
What part of external services did you not understand ? You're talking about using your ISPs smarthost services - which should be favoured when possible... but not all ISPs are clueful enough to rely on
