What third parties? 5-cent.us is hosted, as I said, and you seem to ignore, on hostmonster. The same company is also bluehost - they are one and the same: I assume there was a merger a few years back. They funnel all their email through a few mailhosts for the entire hosting provider. *THAT* is what's being blocked. I've argued before that blocks should be by source - actual source, the oldest "Received-From", not from the last mailer. I think that would a) get the hosts/virtual hosts send out the spam, not the last email host, *and* would block the crap sent out that fraudulently puts in "Reply-to: with other folks' email (I'm really not sending all that spam to addresses in the Netherlands or Italy). > > you can choose to fix it or continue to suffer the vagaries that are > apparent in your methods to get an e-mail to the intended target - it's > your choice.

And I've said all along that I don't like dnsorbs, due to what I consider a bad methodology. I am *NOT* going to jump hosting providers every time this happens. Unless, of course, you have a good-sized hosting provider in the US who charges inexpensive rates for domain hosting that has *NEVER* been blocked. mark
