That's what they want. Take the business elsewhere and really teach them a lesson. Before you sign up though, read your TOS this time. Ask them directly if you can use their server for your uses, get it in writing.

This is not the case since the Verizon (really BANET since they later force moved me to Verizon.Net when they shut down BANET.NET) TOS when I signed up ALLOWED me to send Email no matter what the From Address was. Even if I am allowed to do so at Sign-Up time, the other ISP can pull a Verizon later. Note that I am not addressing if Verizon should have the ability to refuse to relay my Email if I do not use my Verizon Account Address in the From. I am addressing the issue of Verizon REFUSING to accept my Verizon Email when I am not using Verizon Connectivity EVEN THOUGH their policy on my sending NON-Verizon Email when using Verizon connectivity is "Use THEIR Server". Thus they are unwilling to follow their own STATED rules (ie: I can not "Use THEIR [ie: Verizon's] Server" when not connected to the Verizon Network).
