At the moment I send via an authenticated SMTP service provided by my web host.
I just RTFM and found that the host can handle SMTP using a few different ports, so it looks like I won't have any problems after all.
Your mail may be filtered/plastered with "xtra rul3z" stickers, but it won't be blocked.
Absolutely unacceptable, IMO. An ISP has no place inserting content into anyone's email for any purpose. I've seen the rubbish that Xtra attaches, and if they want to plaster it across my messages they can pay for the privilege (my rates are far from reasonable).
