Who cares about NAT when you say smtp auth rather than allowing relay for
specific IPs?  And if you mean your smarthost is a linux box in your home,
it isn't impossible to get static IP broadband .. which is neither natted
nor port 25 filtered.

decade old now.

What if, your home is also behind NAT or blocked port 25?
