You say your hosting provider is blocking port 25. I am puzzled
that you're suprised when you're unable to make outbound connections
to port 25.

No relayhost setting to route email via the providers email relay
or a suitable submission service.

Port 25 is blocked as you say. Therefore, you can't send mail
directly to remote domains. That's what the port 25 block is for.
You need to relay via some other server. Often that's the provider's
server. It is there to try and make sure hosted machines are not
spamming.
