Ellen's point is probably, that deputies@ get numerous mails
from whining users of blocked MTAs, and if your text somehow
indicates that their MTA might be blocked for two days, then
they might send really annoying mails to deputies@

"24 hours after the last spam was sent" is much more friendly
for these upset users.

Whining users don't read FAQs.  But if they do it against all
odds they might find yout text, and that should be as correct
as possble.

Whining users don't want to understand FAQs.  They want fuel
for their flame throwers.  And "24" is less fuel than "48" ;-)
