It's an unwarranted interference and a nuisance. When I use another POP/SMTP
mail server (eg on GMail, Yahoo, or a web space service), I don't want my
ISP blocking my access to it. I don't want to be dependent solely on Xtra's
mail server for outgoing mail. If another mail service I subscribe to
provides its own smtp server, I want to be able to use it.

The same applies to any port, service or content, really. An ISP shouldn't
block it except at my request.
