We do this only for dynamically addressed dialups.  This is done through
RADIUS so I can turn it off individually per account, and do so on a case
by case basis with explanation of need.  This might mean adding a new
field to your customer account database.  I call mine "allow_smtp".

Specifically authorized exceptions to filter policies are OK, especially
when they help further cement the relationship between a customer and
his/her ISP.  Hopefully you charge a service fee for making such
exceptions though!  ;-)

Not for dedicated accounts.  Dialup accounts have to pay for a static IP
address to get it ($5/mo for first IP).  Non-static just don't get it at
all.
