POP3 will likely work fine. Your SMTP may or may not work fine. If
your friends internet provider is the same as yours, you have a far
better chance of being able to Send Mail To People. If not, your odds
just got a lot worse.
Many providers prevent or severely limit access to their SMTP servers
from outside their own network. Some will even limit POP3 access. As
far as I know, all ISPs provide a web interface to substitute for POP3/SMTP.
This is one reason why many folks buy email service from independent
services like Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail and others.
