There is little actual reason why someone should be able to send TCP/25 SMTP email from a residential connection when most software support authenticated TCP/587 submits.
Just FYI- the ISP has the same 220 email address limit even when I send thru port 587, authenticated. (its comcast)
We don't allow most of our residential customer base to speak SMTP TCP/25 to anywhere at all (and we have millions of them). Wish more ISPs would do the same. -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: swmike () swm pp se
