That's not quite right, I don't think, because if the sender uses Squirrelmail on my server, his messages are accepted at places where they are otherwise blocked. Mine is a personal sever. I am a newbie, but I'm using Postfix/Debian and it is not an open relay. I personally have not had any problems being blocked anywhere, I've used dnsbl lookups and been OK, and have used available open-relay tests and been OK. We only have problems when my non-US friend sends mail to the list (or to certain domains that apparently have him or his ISP blocked). This sender is a "good guy" - a missionary that is only sending mail to his supporters - nothing unsolicited. His only problems are with AOL and one non-US domain.
