One of the basic problems with discussions about spam control is that it
focuses entirely on spam. Blocking output SMTP from individual dial-ups
has a serious negative consequence:
Laptop mobile users cannot use their home SMTP server.
At best, they must reconfigure for each venue -- goodbye wireless
hotspot convenience -- and that is IF they know the SMTP server address for
the local access.
In other words, by blocking output SMTP, mobile users are hurt
badly. I know that *I* certainly am. Constantly and serously.
