We got thousands, tens of thousands of users and forced them to authenticate. We could
not afford being blacklisted.

Yes I know. But I have thousands of users who have not setup for
secure authentication using many different readers.
No, I have been this way for six years and still am not listed as an
open relay. Like I said earlier, library attacks here are cut off
almost instantly by BlackIce Server Protection and any one who tries
to mass mail is trapped by Declude Hijack. Since any one can signup
for a free email account, they can instantly establish a relay here,
so there is no real point to worrying about it. This is why we have
resorted to these other methods which are working just super.
We initially used EZSignUp, but this was very bad. Now we have a
confirming email response signup and we have not had any major abuser
since. This is a tightly monitored system and we are very pleased with
our current configuration.
