I presume you mean the Port 25 can only access the ISP's SMTP server, rather
than the port 
being totally *blocked*.

About the simplest would be:
BLAT - -to accessd at shaw.ca -f stuart at lexacorp.com.pg -subject "Test Message"
-body 
"This is a test message from Stuart to Jim" -server smtp.global.net.pg

Note the initial "-" that's in lieu of  "-<filename>" since do not have a
text file containing the 
message body.
Replace the "smtp.global.net.pg" with the ISPs mail server.
