1) ISPs are expected to be the point of control for outbound mail.
Getting users to secure their machines is a lost cause. ISP SMTP
servers have to be responsible for performing virus and spam
filtering.
Many ISPs disagree with this. They see themself as a transparent
carrier, much like a postal service.
Still, the postal service forbids sending of certain types of materials
via their service.
Yup, but do they actively check/enforce this?
BTW I do _not_ think an ISP is allowed to be this unresponsible. They
do have an obligation to "the net", the same net that allows them to
make money.
just my 2c
