We turned it on and do:

550 This mail server requires authentication when attempting to send to
a non-local e-mail address. Please see
http://www.shelbybb.com/email.aspx for more info.  

Had a few calls, but not too bad.  Most people get that error, go to the
webpage, and follow instructions.

We allow authenticated SMTP relay from anywhere, and unauthenticated
SMTP
relay from within our network. Unauthenticated traffic from our
broadband
customers is transparently routed to a "different" server (with a clever
abuse of NAT rules), and that server does extra spam scanning on
outgoing
email.

If I could rebuild the whole network from scratch, I'd love to make
everything require authentication, but there's a bunch of pesky legacy
customers out there.
