Hm, are there companies out there that offer outbound SMTP services (for people who are blocked, or which need a mail server thats not blacklisted because their provider isn't dealing with spam problems)? I never really looked into too much, but I haven't seen it offered on provider's sites outright.
Have you been looking at providers in the right industry? Such services are usually offered as addons by people who sell DNS services (especially dynamic DNS) and other such things designed to make it easier for people to run their own servers. They do exist, and as was pointed out earlier in this discussion, cost much less than the 1U colo alternative. We do it, and I know at least one or two others in our industry do...
