Yes, but also that the user must be connected to our dialup to gain 'relay' access to our mail server. If someone, even one of our legit users, is on a DSL connection, then they *cannot* send mail through our server. They must use the server connected to their third party service.
THIS is your problem.
Good anti-spam measure, but not SPF-friendly....
No, this is not a 'good anti-spam measure' it is a 'screw your users' policy. If you have mail accounts for users who are not on your network then you have an obligation to allow those users access to your mailserver. Fix your server, setup SPF, and your self-created 'problems' will go away.
This is what port 587 is *for*. This is what SASL authentication is *for*.
