Mifla, if you do not have permission from the recipients to send these e-mails, there is a good chance that what your are sending will get classified as spam, a.k.a. UCE ... unsolicited commercial e-mail.
Bad things can and likely will happen to you.
Example:
a customer of mine has pre-qualifed business clients ... his clients have consented in advance to receive annoucements from my customer about product upgrades ... one of his pre-qualifed business clients forget their agreement and complained to my customer's
isp ... that isp blocked my customer's internet access without even contacting my customer first.
MORE INFORMATION
Mifla, learn how e-mail works ... quick, very simplified summary ...
your computer (client) ==> your smtp server ==> MTA ==> MTA ==> recipient's POP server ===> recipient
Also, the recipients' computers will likely block your e-mails.
Mifla, perhaps you can share with us why your millions of e-mails are not spam?
g.
P.S.: if a site like proxyfire.net is giving you ip addresses of open, unprotected SMTP servers, it is highly likely that those open servers are already blocked ( i could be wrong ).
Mifla, to use any SMTP server, you need to know what that server requires in order for you to use it.
For example, i can not use my isp's server unless i provide both an account and a valid password for that account.

Chances are good that your millions of e-mails will be detected and blocked by a well managed MTA.
