2 Grocery Cost in Shanghai, 2007

Maybe my house is not far from yours, I often go to Jinxiu Road Hymall to buy daily necessities but never buy vegetables there, I feel it's a bit expensive compared to local market.
In my area there is a Ziye Market which only opens from 6:00-11:30 every day and supplies enough vegetables at reasonable price.
e.g. Cucumber: 4.00 RMB/kg, Tomato: 4.00 RMB/kg, White Gourd: 1.50 RMB/kg, Pork: 16.00 RMB/kg, Lettuce 2.00 RMB/kg much more cheaper than Hymall, If you go to a local market to buy all of these stuffs which only cost 25-30 RMB.

1 Network Infrustucture in my Home in Shanghai

I just arrived in Shanghai and it has been difficult for my outlook to download emails. I am using Shanghai Telecom ADSL. However, it is impossible for me to send out any emails. I am guessing that Shanghai Tel is blocking smtp port 25. Any idea how to get around it or know of any smtp servers that I can send emails out from?
