Putting these addresses back into use does not mean that they have to be allocated to networks where they'll number mail servers. ARIN staff is doubtless aware of the history of these blocks and will presumably do their best to allocate them to networks that aren't intended to host mail servers.

Those streaming video servers in that returned /24 are going to work *real* well talking to a network that implemented the block as a null route rather than a port-25 block.
