Actually what I said doesn't make any sense. I don't understand where
the problem is.
I'd still like to hear from anyone running a SMTP server on Linux, not NOS.

Not exactly understanding what you are trying to solve here.
ISPs may block SMTP traffic on IP addresses that they have little or no
control over as they don't want to end up on some RBL someplace (eg
SpamHaus). In that case they would only open port 25 traffic up to an
MX that they control. That MX may have various spam filtering on it and
they would have a way to log traffic to track down "abusers".

I have to running axMail. What I use is postfix and I bind the outbound
SMTP sessions in main.cf to my 44-net IP. My ISP can't see what port
IPEncap uses, so by default, outbound and inbound work perfect - I can
tell by the volume of spam that tries to filter its way in daily. Also
you can tell it works by receipt of this reply. The two lines I use are:
inet_interfaces = 44.88.0.9
smtp_bind_address = 44.88.0.9
I don't know if exim, sendmail, or qmail have this ability (I wouldn't
see why not) but I've used postfix for years and it's been a great MTA.
It works well with procmail, spamassassin, postgrey, and other plugins.

I use postfix but at other gateway machines I use exim a lot.
You can make it work will all these MTA's.
