Well, I am pleased and displeased,

Pleased to see that there really are folks using SC to block incoming mail.

Displeased because (one of) the corporate mailserver(s) I use was blocked.

Strangely, the party I was sending to has specific addresses set up for use
by my employer, which is a fairly major client, so you;d think we'd have
been whitelisted in this particular case.

Seems we are blocked for back-scatter. I guess lot's of people still ahve
auto responders or vacation notices, and I can verify that the spam
blocking/filtering/miltering is far from leakproof, theres enough getting
through that backscatter would be a problem.

Anyway I sent a note to our security people, It's not my mess to deal with.

Ah well.
