Hi,
this last point means that their customers are bound to use the network 
operator's smtp for sending.
While I generally believe that end users should send thru a smarthost, I also 
think it is a bad
idea to restrict them to the network provider's smarthost. They might prefer to 
send via their
company's SMTP instead
