Perhaps someone has insight into whether or how this works... maybe Charles
could chime in?

I know that Cox blocks outbound and inbound connections to port 25, leaving
only the option of using one of their official mail servers to send outgoing
mail. What I want to do is run my own copy of sendmail/postfix/whatever on my
LAN, and have it forward mail to one of the Cox servers. Will Cox's servers
mind if I connect to them with an MTA instead of an MUA, and how would I
config my server to do that?

Why? Because.
