I have recently upgraded to an ADSL1+ account and an now getting about 650kb per second downloads. (I am also finding out which sites have miserable upload speeds.) As a result of this upgrade, however, I am unable to connect from my server on port 25 to any other server except Internode's, my ISP. I am happy to chain through them although it slows transmissions by a few seconds but connecting to gmail on TLS or SSL seems like a neat alternative, particularly when I am not on my networks.
