My ISP let me use any SMTP server i want - BUT ...

When i am not connected at my ISP network, i must use their webmail
mechanisn.
Well, two of the three E-mail providers allow Port 26, my ISP does not.
If Port 26 works at non-home Wifi sites then I will ask my ISP to
enable Port 26 so I can leave all of them set that way all the time.
Allow me to jump in here. I'm a Cox HSI customer so I have some
familiarity with port 25 blocking. You may wish to ask your nonISP email
providers what SMTP port to use. This will generally be port 587. If SSL
is used then use port 465. Your email provider (not your ISP) will be
able to tell you what ports and with what settings their server is
listening.
If you are away from home and can't log on to your ISP then you can't
send over their network. Use their web-mail.
When I send emails here at home Cox's MX mail transit servers are the
only Cox servers touching my email, not their SMTP or POP servers.
