It wouldn’t surprise me if there were some triggers that made authentication be looked at harder.

This was a brand new IP without any rDNS (ie, it’s not intended to send mail). I do expect volume plays into it. But, as I’ve been saying: Google’s filtering is nuanced and tries to do the right thing most of the time. laura -- The Delivery Experts Laura Atkins Word to the Wise la...@wordtothewise.com Email Delivery Blog: http://wordtothewise.com/blog
