My incoming E-Mails are being rejected by some 'filter' that the ISP

My wireless ISP Provider says w/o that 'service' they'd get millions
of spams
a day.
I don't like this however...who are they to be selecting what I can
receive or not.
I'd rather my SM Spam filter be working (which I can control).
Is this practice becoming the norm ?
I don't want to have to obtain a second phone line ISP just to get my
E-Mail w/o
it being filtered. The Tech rep is becoming truculent about it -
like "go somewhere else then!"
I have many people tell me (pissed off) that they cannot get thru to
me !
I teach and my students have to be able to E-Nail me.
I might even miss that message telling me I just won the Lottery. lol.

I have found PART of the problem...
My ISP is XXZXXXX.com and one person is using XXZXXXX.net - funny though,
the dot net actually comes thru once in a while.
Then I think some folk repalce the "Z" with an "S" in the ISP's name.
Several things are probably going on.
QUESTION: How can I find out if the XXZXXXX.net is somehow in my
system and
going out as my return E-Mail address by mistake ?
How can I tell what others are getting ?
DoctorBill
I think I found out where this is coming from !
I checked my mail settings in "Mail & Newsgroup Settings" under ACCOUNT
SETTINGS.
The Outgoing Server (SMTP) has the Address with .net instead of .com !
AND - my OLD E-Mail address is in there as a second entry.
HOW do I get to that and change the one and erase the other ? ! ! !
DoctorBill
Couldn't wait for replies....searched for XXZXXXX.net text via Windows XP
Search,
found the text in prefs.js, went into Prefs.js file and edited in .net.
Worked.
I am afraid to erase the old E-Mail address in there as there seems to be
several
citations of it there.
How do I erase the old Address in there ?
