What I was trying to say in my snippages from the SCbl listing
[currently the server has now autodelisted] was that it was bad for an
output [and what is also in this case an input server] to be listed
because that affects so many of the server's user senders.  I was also
trying to say that we are looking at spamcop reporters reporting a
server.  Since the parser is designed to not report servers but instead
a user IP behind the server, and if we can't see the evidence, we are
left to guess at the various causes of a server being reported by
reporters or a reporter.  Especially a server which is also an input
server, MX.

One of those guesses is a reporter reporting hir own provider.

There's nothing about what I was saying about that above that answers
your question [which I don't really understand]

SC's notify for 67.43.163.77 would be abuse at xfernet.net because of the
arin contact.  If a user at sumertilmac sent a spam, I would have to
know the output server to know how SC would notify.  SC doesn't notify
on the basis of a domainname.
