Personally I would charge them for the /24 too, makes users think twice about the need for a block that large.

We do charge them for addresses already and cost doesn't come into
play.  We charge for assignments shorter than /28 to discourage IP
hogs.

I would also give them a /64 per lan (alt: broadcast domain) as well to allow them to start working with IPv6 for 
their email.

They have inquired about IPv6 already, but it's only gone so far as
that.  I would gladly give them a /64 and be done with it, but my
concern is that they are going to want several /64 subnets for the
same reason and I don't really *think* it's a legitimate reason.  Bear
in mind that "legitimate" in this context is referring to the
justification itself, not their business model.

Thanks,
