That's correct. I check five accounts with no problem, but have only
one account as my "DUN account". The other have "Use Account-specific
Network settings" UNchecked.

Usually they just require you to check POP mail first before they let
you use the SMTP server. Otherwise complain to your ISP: they cannot
force you to connect via their DUN, you have the right to chose a
cheaper poss. It's really up to you how you connect into your account.
Or do they give you the phone connection for free?
If they do not budge, just set the SMTP server in the accounts to
another one completely unrelated, but nevertheless without this
anti-spamming rule.
