Dear List

We sometimes get requests from business customers, with own mailserver,
which directly receives email via smtp, for an outgoing smtp-relay.

I then argue with:

* Their server is absolutely capable of sending emails directly
* They have better control of the sending process.
* They can look for problem them self in their logs.
* Anti-Spam thresholds aimed at end users, not companies.
* They are not affected if another customer is spaming and therefore the
  IP of the relay blacklisted.

But still, I then often get an "BUT... you are our ISP, isn't it your
duty to offer such a relay service? Other ISP do this!"

rly? Do other ISP still offer smtp relaying services to business
customers with own email infrastructure?

Mit freundlichen Grüssen
