Using provider SMTP

A simple question!!!!
One of my customer wishes to use its provider' SMTP server to send mails. Is this fine on FQ considering the "Only allow email for domains hosted" system?

The mails won't ever pass through our servers, so yes, this is fine. In fact, a lot of ISPs require this as they block port 25 connections (Earthlink is one)...

The rule is only to make sure mail that *does* pass through our servers is for a valid account, and not used for spamming or relaying purposes.
