  Because the ISP (BP) probably has soo many customers that can't keep
their mail servers from being SPAM servers that they block access to port
25 by default unless the customer informs them they know what they are
doing.

  I suggest talking to someone at BP and convincing them that you can run
a spam free server, unless your user agreement with them precludes this.
