Well, preventing customers to use Windows(tm) boxes behind broadband accesses would help much much more to prevent spam. *scnr* > If you are a user, why can't you use the ISPs relay server?

Because there are pretty much KMU, which are having their own mail server, which is hard to set up if you have to use a relay server with authentication. Some Exchanges still don't support that. If I was a customer, blocking a relevant port is a service downgrade (without proper information) and I would pretty hard insist in cancling the contract.
