yeah, wt...

I run my own mail server, but also use gmail, rr, ...

from my ~/.fetchmailrc for rr
  poll pop-server.indy.rr.com tracepolls with proto POP3 timeout 60
       user 'pshanahan' there with password 'xxxxxxxxxxxx' is 'paka' here
       options fetchall stripcr 
        mda '/usr/lib/sendmail -i -oem -f %F %T'

of course, /usr/lib/sendmail is actually postfix which hands off to
procmail which invokes spamd after delivering msgs which do not need spam
filtering.

from /etc/postfix/main.cf
  myhostname = wahoo.no-ip.org
  mail_spool_directory = /var/mail
  mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain,
     $mydomain,paka.pointto.us
  mailbox_command = /usr/bin/procmail

I have no prblm with postfix delivering other than to local procmail.  I
do relay outgong via my isp as too many sites reject mail from a
non-static domain.

But, I run my own servers which now seems to be allowed by rr but wasn't
in the past, at least pubically.  I have ran my own servers for at least 10
years (before rr publically allowed).

ps. have you tried running a mail server from a non-standard port?  Maybe
    not checked by your isp....
