Interesting to find out that 28% of ISPs do block email sent directly  
from consumer connections.

"Enforcement of anti-spam clauses is low. Some providers reject all  
straight SMTP traffic
from consumer connections, i.e. they allow every user only to access  
the mail servers of
the provider, and sometimes restrict email access to special software  
or to web access."

We have been trying this technique for the last 6 months and we are  
happy with the results.
What I would like to ask you, is how do the several ISPs implement  
this technique?
