Speedfactory gets a lot of kudos here, but aren't they really just a
middleman for a DSL line that goes directly from your house/business to
BellSouth?  I understand that SF may provide some pop3/smpt/www/dns
servers other than those provided by BS, but your next statement seems
to suggest that you don't need these.

I use Yahoo too (obviously), so why do you need POP3 and SMTP ports open
on your upstream network?
