As your ISP is clearly incompetent, just tell them that your client
runs on a Windows box and they'll be none the wiser.  The Internet
services (SMTP, POP, IMAP, ...) used by mail clients neither know nor
care on what OS the client runs.  They'd have to be running something
like passive OS fingerprinting (p0f) to tell you that you're a liar.
