Provided they know that the connection is from one of their authorised dial-up users (remember the original posters ip address was in the DUL) then they can allow any messages from there regarless of the envelope sender address. It is (very remotely - with dialup) possible that the dial-up user is allowing messages to be relayed through his MTA (possibly without realising it) - but even in this case the spam blocking services normally regard the ISP as an "outgoing" relay with slightly less stringent controls. I have broadband connection and as you can see from the headers on this message it is relayed through my ISP. Now they DO suffer from customers MTAs as relays, but they have restriction in the AUP, and (I am led to believe - my firewall would drop attempts) they actively scan for relaying - -- Alan - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.chandlerfamily.org.uk -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE8SS1v1mf3M5ZDr2kRAvwYAKCwFjZXPyM9rSwvRQiw9kjzhEOlmgCfYKLc 4wSNrQ4L9vxX6udgELF9SOs= =s7OS -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
