    That’s insane to me. How is that a free and open Internet? Should be illegal.

      Too many people get malware that setup an email server and start sending out spam/phishing emails.

        That’s interesting. Is it easily preventable?

          Yes.

          ISPs block email ports on residential connections to prevent this.

            I meant on the part of the host. Would it be easily preventable on the server if the ports weren’t blocked by the ISP?

              Not for the average person who pays for a home (vs business) internet connection.

                  Why?

                  I can count on no hands the amount of people I know who want to host their own email server on a residential connection (and that includes myself).

                    Very anecdotal. 🤷‍♂️
