You get my point. ISPs should not block ports, they should terminate users that break the rules.

Amen to that. Removing legitimate services from all users to keep a few users from "going bad" is a rotten strategy.

Re: They could hire me

Hosting a mail server from a residential account is not a legitimate service that is being provided to you on your residential account. You are getting that service by violating the TOS/AUP. Since you are not paying for that service in the first place, you are out nothing if they block it.

Re: They could hire me

Port 25 is used by BOTH servers AND email clients to send mail to the SMTP server. Such a block would prevent the perfectly legitimate use of using an alternative SMTP server.
