please use a smart-host to relay to your ISPs mail server, that's what it's there for.
If you want to run a mail server please get some co-lo space someplace.
Thanks for your fascism (which, I've noticed, techies are susceptible to). But no thanks.

Please do not take this personally, it is not directed at you specificly. It is a rant.

Awesome rant. I fully agree.

I personally run my own qmail server on a broadband connection, but all my mail gets sent all the way to texas, and then to wherever it needs to go, so that i don't run into RBLS or have my mail dropped anywhere because of it being a broadband IP address. I find that this is a hoop to jump through, but it is worth taking, considering the fact that now i at least feel i have done my part in helping out other admins with their job.
