We deliver the mail via ETRN and gave those customers a fixed IP on our radius-server. So even though they're not online all the time, the source of their mails stay the same. Anyway, since they use our own dialup, they also use our SMTP as a smart-host. With ISDN and the bad habit of sending those joke-pics to a bunch of people, one would not want to have the messages (up to several MBytes!) sent one by one by his own mailserver but rather let it distribute by the ISP.
