Over here, in Australia...

Some ISPs block port 80 by default, though you may enable it.  I seem to
recall that was an ISP-reaction to a worm.

Some ISPs block port 80, unless you pay extra for a business account.
Partially as a way for them to get more money out of you, partially
because their usual consumer configuration is designed more for traffic
flowing in the other direction.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.  I
