Are you absolutely positivily sure that you can not misconfigure e-mail MTAs 
who use smtps (465) and submission (587) to be open relays?

My understanding is from my quick search on this topic is that IF you setup an 
open relay then that relay can be used regardless of the connection coming 
through a SSL encrypted connection or a plain-text connection on port 25.

Plain-text (25) or encrypted (465) has nothing to do with authentication, just 
like you can visit many websites using http (80) and https (443) without 
actually logging in.

I am not sure having them open by default would be a good thing.
