You're right, we are already in ORBZ db, that's why I take care of this
issue at the
moment and am looking for a solution.

There are some ISPs that our roaming ppl are using that are blocking
relaying if
the from or reply adress is not @theirdomain.tld, this even if the mail is
sent
from their dialup pool IP Addresses range...

Now I am testing another solution using qmail+vpopmail and pop(or
imap)-before-smtp system on unix.

It looks to be the solution, it works with a mysql db for user config
storage, roaming
users can send mail as long as they identify with pop3 or imail before
sending an outgoing mail, and damn all this is free!

Thanks all for your answers.

Roaming users should be using their Roaming ISP's server for outgoing mail,
and your server for incoming mail only.  If you don't
takes steps to close your open relay you will get blacklisted, and then your
question will be "HELP!  How do I get out of the
blacklists?"  I'm sure there are many on this list that know that lesson,
and would advise you against leaving your server
configured as an open relay.
