I second that. Port 25 is without encryption, so i don't offer auth
there - only on 587.
Apart from that, stolen passwords were tried for login via port 587.
This is reduced quite a bit by

        smtpd_sender_restrictions = 
        [...}
        reject_unknown_sender_domain,
        reject_unknown_reverse_client_hostname,
        reject_unknown_client_hostname

which refuses connections from addresses without DNS setup. This
blocks people who run their own smtp server, but don't bother to setup
a dyndns hostname at least. I can do without them. Most of the live in
asia where i hardly know anybody...

Cheers,

        tim
