This is not entirely accurate -- I've been running an e-mail server on 
Cox since I got the connection, and have never had port 25 blocked 
(though port 80 _is_ -- hence why my URL is what it is). I have reason 
to believe that the ports that Cox block vary between regions of the 
valley, since I have several friends that either have port 25 blocked, 
or 80, or even both.
