Depends on your acceptable use policy and terms of service.
 If they won't or aren't able to respond effectively, I would say that (depdning on the who and what of your 
customer), shutting down the port may be a viable next step.

Hi mike
 
In our case, the AUP gives us the right to do so, and some customers are not able. 
Is possible to deligate this issue to them (Through RIRs  databeses, emails will be sent to them directly not through 
us)? without new ASN and BGP requirements?
 
thanks

hi all

I am receiving emails from many servers saying that: this ip (from a
customer) is trying to attacking one of our servers.

Is it appropriate to filter ssh, telnet, and smtp from my customers, or
just forward the message to my customer contact persons?


Depends on your acceptable use policy and terms of service. I would say 
trying to micromanage the ip protos being used for these attacks is just 
creating work for you - if they are the source, and you have credible 
reports, then the customer should be notified and they should commit to 
resolving the problem. If they won't or aren't able to respond 
effectively, I would say that (depdning on the who and what of your 
customer), shutting down the port may be a viable next step.

Mike-
