The last time I tried it, Zen included too many legitimate users behind

Can you please tell me why an ADSL user would send legitimate email
without using the ISP's SMTP server?
At ths risk of this moving too far away from Postfix, let me just ask if
you're thinking ADSL means dynamic IP address? There are many legitimate
mail servers on static IP ADSL lines (including mine) provided by ISPs
with "servers permitted" policies. Typically these are business-class
services but not always (my ISP does not distinguish between residential
and business but their services are not priced for the mass-market
residential user). Why handle the outgoing mail myself? Better control.
If there's a problem, it sits on my system where I can see it and deal
with it, not on my ISP's server where it's invisible to me.
You are of course right. I ment home ADSL, not static IP business ADSL.
And yes. We're moving away from postfix :-)

And why shouldn't be able to use my own mail server behind my private
residential ADSL line ?
Not allowing so is against the net neutrality... but this discussion is
already out of the postfix scope :)
