Same here at work. We specifically disable "web mail" on our firewalls.
No checking of the home email account while at work, which does make
sense from a security point of view. When you're network consists of 65K
devices you have to draw the line somewhere.

While at home I use a stand alone mail client, Thunderbird, as I don't
totally trust Google. I do have a G mail account but don't use it. Maybe
Mediacom has their anti-spam system setup correctly because I don't get
a lot of spam, and what I do get gets immediately dumped by Thunderbird,
and have no trouble with bouncing mail.
