As of today, I can telnet to port 25 on my DA server and do a simple HELO 250 to send any email I want.

How can I prevent this access? And what drawbacks will such prevention have to server users?

If you have recently retrieved email via pop3 then the popb4smtp would have set your IP address to allow smtp. If you wait long enough (30 minutes I think) and make sure you don't retrieve any email during that time, try it again.
 
Yes, I just realized OE was auto-checking. I'm sure that's it. Thanks!
