They do block Windows ports, but they don't block 25 outbound. I use
25 outbound alot to other smtp servers, and it works. They block 80
yes, but 443 is functional.

Meh... I dropped them and went with Vonage. I already have the 'net
speed, why not use it :P Free long distance throughout the US and
Canada is a very nice thing, saves me lots of money. (parents and
relatives are in MD, friends throughout the US) I end up paying about
the same, with extra features. The only reason I did this is because
no matter what I do, moving-wise, I still have the same configuration.
(not to mention my phone is connected over 802.11g to my network now
muahaha)
