Log and monitor all that you can. And watch for a large number of IPs
logging into an account over a day (over a set limit - even across
country - that takes into account "home - blackberry - airport lounge
- airport lounge in another country - hotel - RIPE meeting venue"
type scenarios).
And especially watch for and/or firewall off logins from areas from
where you see particularly high levels of smtp auth abuse / logins to
compromised accounts
