If you want your customers to use your SMTP mail server to send mail, then you need to install POP before Relay software, or in the
mail configuration add their IP addresses or domain mask in to Allow Relaying field.  I use the second method myself, but it is a
bit tedious constantly updating that record for new users or for old users that changes dial-up services regularly.

Also, note that if your customers use Earthlink for their ISP they will have to use the Earthlink SMTP server as they block access
to port 25.
