My ISP blocks outgoing port 25 connections but my e-mail provider (not

Indeed. But
only fools react to open relays by blacklisting an entire
ISP domain, as (I think) ORBS has done.
Blocking a whole domain is silly, to me at least from the ISP
prospective. I
defend an end client's right to do so though.
