Two discoveries today:

(1) Less than 20% of the spam reports I email to spamcop from the old 
SMTP server seem to get there.  So far 100% of the reports I've sent 
from a new SMTP server have gone through.  Hmmm.

(2) I know the ISP for the old SMTP server uses BrightMail spam filters 
on incoming email.  After reading your post on BrightMail on the forums, 
I'll bet they are using them on outgoing email too, even though the 
first response I got claimed they were not.  I've pinged them again . . 
. I'll let you know what I find out but at the moment it seems pretty 
clear.  (Actually this would not be the first time I've found a 
problem/unexpected "feature" in their BrightMail configuration for them.)

Thanks for your help.
