Telus is so broken in several ways. I complain and the friendly support person acts as if nothing is wrong.
As I understand it, you need to be sending to their SMTP server from 'within their network'. Either on their LTE or on their home/business internet service. So when you leave your wifi on and it connects somewhere, perhaps in a restaurant, then your outgoing email fails auth. And the auth on LTE is by IMEI, not by password, so if someone can spoof that... I suspect that is not difficult? Telus is not as big as Microsoft, agreed, but it is one third of our wireless industry, so it is big.
