Or are you simply hinting that one end of the transaction may be using an ISP server?
Anyhow, this is getting OT and there's loads to be read about this debate on other newsgroups and forums. Apologies.

What I was suggesting is that it is trivial to amend the DPI to siphon off port 25 and 110 traffic as well as port 80. Scan for keywords etc. My point was that even if you have your own mailserver, the
data still traverses the ISP's network and is subject to DPI.
