outbound SMTP should be blocked for any dynamic or dialup source within
One of the basic problems with discussions about spam control is that it focuses entirely on spam. Blocking output SMTP from individual dial-ups has a serious negative consequence:

I don't think Paul meant to say blocked as in 'connection refused', I think he meant that they should be redirected to a local machine that will happily send their mail (with reasonable limits on number of recipients per arbitrary time period, which all of your mail servers should have anyway).
