Reliance data card users are facing some unique issues with using SMTP or POP3 of any other provider.
My company hosts with a reputed provider but I am unable to use SMTP / POP3 account and smtp server of my hosting provider, when accessing the internet through Reliance data card. I am able to access/use the same service via Airtel or any other ISP.
Looks like Reliance is blocking some services for its data card users.
Could this be because,
i. it is trying to throttle users and enforce low bandwidth usage on its wireless broadband service?
ii. or it is trying to act in the same manner that Microsoft does - subvert competition by unfair means. I mean, if you stop email/pop service of customers of other hosting providers, you will force them to use your hosting services.
Any inputs / assistance / advice will be welcome...
