imho, if a user uses someone's mailservers to receive mail, (s)he should use
their servers to send mail too. That is the only way to properly implement
anti-forging techniques like SPF, DKIM etc. I also do not like people
using our competitors' mailsevrers for receiving mail (and pay them for
that) while sending spam through us...
