I assume that you want providers to force their customers to use their SMTP servers.
But: If you're running a bot net, nobody can stop you from creating an open mail relay using a port different from the standard SMTP port (all those assigned port numbers are just a convention, remember...).
Do you really want your ISP to filter the contents of all your outbound TCP connections?
