We do.  Port 25 blocked outbound except for mail server.  Everything
forced to relay through mail server.  Mail server forced though filtering
device.  We scan for AV and Spam.

Why?  Because if a pc were to be compromised and start spewing we need to
block it and know about it right away.  If spam or other malware were to
get out from such an event it would affect our IP/domain's reputation and
deliverability would suffer.

It's also just the right thing to do IMHO, neighborhood watch style.  I
keep my side of the street safe, how 'bout you?
