How can you - "you can configure your server to use cox for your outbound messages"
Do you connect to their SMTP server and look like a client?

They simply block the std ports, and there are ways around that.
You don't need to run a full-fledged domain right off the bat though. You might start with a private mail server that you can use IMAP with, so you can access your email from all of your devices (multiple computers, phone, etc), and the devices all see your email the same way (ie you file/delete something from one device, it's filed/deleted on all of them). You can run fetchmail on your private server to fetch email from your other accounts, and you can configure your server to use cox for your outbound messages.
