This is also true, but on this side of the pond, the inet service I pay 
40 USD a month for, is expected to supply the mail server free, in this 
case a copy of dovecot which has a pop3 portal too and is surprisingly 
low spam because it has an extensive blacklist of crap it doesn't even 
accept so extensive I've had to whitelist half of the mailing lists I'm 
on. For that I have their cable modem, facing a router running dd-wrt, 
which feeds an 8 port switch to connect up the rest of the machines here 
so all have access to the 10 megabyte DL service that usually shows 
around 11, and the correspondingly slower DSL upload thats just under 3 
megabytes/second in actual speed.

dd-wrt's firewall is bullet-proof, nothing comes in that wasn't invited 
except other folks accessing my web page, listed in the sig.
