Ramesh: Several. One I already mentioned in the post (set up an SSH tunnel to a different host, and use localhost as an SMTP relay via ssh). An alternative is to just use a host which supports sending mail on ports other than 25. If you’re interested, I could set you up with an email account which offers this possibility, for a fee. If you’re interested, drop me an email to crschmidt at crschmidt dot net.

Oh my god. I can’t even begin to describe how annoying networks where port 25 for outgoing mail are. I always forget when I’m on my laptop that I need to login to my webmail in order to send out shit when I’m not at home because everyone I freaking know is on an ISP that has port 25 blocked. Bleeeeeeeeh.
