Not only that.

If the business is large enough, they may not have external POP3 or IMAP
accounts, thus these ports (110 for POP3 resp. ...errr, whatever the
port for IMAP was) are not open on the firewall for outgoing
connections.

[a firewall in a corporate environment usually blocks everything, both
incoming and outgoing, unless configured otherwise - the typical home
router/firewall combinations usually only block everything incoming, but
allow everything outgoing]
