If your ISP is incompetent at configuring an SMTP server, then whose
fault is it that you continue to buy bad service? Why don't you treat
your incompetent locl provider of "Client only, non-public address"
or "Client only, public address" as a provider of those services and
use them only to connect to a system where you get competent Full
Internet Connectivity?
Indeed. See my comments at <http://www.vix.com/personalcolo/>. Note that
it's probably time I added some SMTP-AUTH/IMAPS/webdav providers to the list,
since not everybody can run their own 1U, but everybody can configure their
mail clients and web authoring tools to deal with more-distant providers.
