If you are connected to embarq, their smtp server will accept your email
because you have already been validated as an embarq customer and not a
spammer. When you are on sbcglobal network, embarq have no idea who you are.
Wifi networks at motels often transparently redirect all smtp requests to
their own servers.
Ask if embarq have authenticated smtp or get a gmail account and use that
for sending regardless of where you are.
