I contacted my ISP and they have blocked port 25 for security reasons. This is becoming more common. Mail sent through their server requires using port 465 with SSL encryption. Are there any other mail servers you can recommend to use?

WebCam Monitor can use Yahoo to send SMTP mail. Create a Yahoo account and you can use Yahoo's SMTP service on port 587. They do not require a SSL connection.

Here are the instructions from Yahoo's website:
