[ale] Bellsouth to Speakeasy?

[Klepinger, Aaron]

I used BSouth port 25 to send about 3 weeks ago to send out a solicited bulk
e-mail.  Worked fine for me.

Subject: [ale] Bellsouth to Speakeasy?



Since Bellsouth is now blocking port 25 outbound (not that I am using it,
but if I did I'd be pissed), I am thinking of switching to Speakeasy to
get a static IP address and true unfiltered internet.

Has anyone had problems qualify'ing for DSL from Speakeasy that is
currently connected to Bellsouth DSL?  3 years ago, I was unable to get
DSL because my home was too far away from the CO.  Bellsouth built a
"remote CO" which got around the distance limitation...  I am wondering if
Bellsouth only allows themselves to service resdidential DSL customers
from these remote CO's, and wont let 3rd party companies in.

I can see the financial reasoning for this, Bellsouth built the
infrastructure/facilities, so they *should* get the customers, but cant I
have my cake and eat it too? :)
