Cox, for example, blocks ALL traffic for outgoing mailservers on their network authenticated or not, at least here in southern AZ...if you're on their network ALL outgoing mail has to go through their servers unless you connect via VPN to the network with your mail server on it. Not a big deal, though, all major mail programs will happily accept multiple outgoing email servers, and usually try them all in turn before complaining. I've got 4 outgoing servers set up on my laptop.
