It's doing its part.
If the anti-spam tactics weren't being used, you'd see
at least 10 times as much spam in your inbox as you
do now.

But a necessary tactic in the war against spammers.

I've also occasionally seen people using port 2525 for backup SMTP.
The whole blocking thing is really obnoxious...

Some ISPs will allow sending IF you do an authenticated
pick-up first, and then do an authenticated send right after that.
There is also the extendedSMTP (ESMTP) "way" of using
higher numbered ports (with or with-out authentication - YMMV)
that will work IF the particular ISP supports that.
