There are reasons your employer insist that all email goes through their
mail server and they want accountability.
First an employer can be held liable for any email that originates from
their computers or from any email sent by their employees while on duty.
This is the main reason.
Second we do spam scanning and when email from the same address pass a per
hour rate these are flag as possible spam and copied to a potential spam
folder. Routinely we find 50 to 200 emails per day between two people
usually spouses or lovers. They are having a correspondence about their
social life after work. These people are clearly spending too much time on
their personal lives and not doing their work. Some people are spending
better than half their work day on personal correspondence and need to be
replaced.

First let me apologize for the receipt request on my last post.
You make my point. All that is needed is to include a web interface on
port
80 in your mailserver. Then when a client incurs port blocking they just
use
your web interface to send and receive email through your server. There
are
several commercial and free web interfaces that can accomplish this.
Roger you again make my case mail administrators be certified.
And if port 80 is blocked by the employer, who insists that all mail goes
through their own mail server for accountability reasons?
