...until someone registers an IP with them, then $time passes and they terminate service or relocate to another provider and that IP address gets recycled onto a different, less technically able customer who's just been given a free pass into Deutche Telekom's mail system. Or, nothiswouldneverhappenwouldit, a spammer/scammer sets up a perfectly legitimate company with a registered office and everything, gets allowed in, and then changes modus operandi. Rinse, repeat. As many parties have said, the approach taken here simply doesn't scale in so many ways.
