ISP outbound SMTP filtering

I have been contemplating our outbound filtering policy and am wondering
what kind of outbound filters other regional/local ISPs are using.
Currently
we are looking at blocking outbound SMTP to curb botnet spamming
systems,
but would be interested in any "standard" filters that you are applying
to
prevent "bad traffic" from users.

For those of you who have done this, does it work? What issues have you
had?
General comments.

For those who don't do this, why? What reasons do you have for not doing
this? General comments.

TIA.
