SMTP AUTH cracking and using the ISP account? Not that it can't and won't be done, but
I'm aware of no actual examples. Could you cite one please?

There's at least one piece of malware out there that tries to use the
default passwords for a number of accounts on an Outlook server to
gain access to use it as a spam relay.  The name escapes me, but
a few minutes of googling should find it...
