Please remember that when you send one email to the lists, you send
THOUSANDS of emails. Retaining the ENTIRE THREAD within each message is very
wasteful in terms of bandwidth. Please remove any unnecessary cruft from
your replies before sending them.

Tell your host this:

"The php process must be able to write recursively to the following
directories: fileadmin, uploads, typo3conf, and typo3temp"

If they can't help you with that, then you have no real alternative but to
move to a competent hosting company--because if your host can't achieve that
modest goal, then not only will you not be able to make TYPO3 work, you'll
be able to use few if any PHP-based CMS tools.

Usually it's a simple matter of changing the group of the relevant
directories to the group that the webserver runs as and ensuring that the
webserver has write-access to them.
