On the other hand, which should he choose - *you* losing business due to his position, or *HIM* losing business if he takes the other position? If he lowers his spam filters enough to allow your *potentially* lost business through, and he loses 10% of his customers to someplace that has a heavier-duty spam filter policy, are you going to repay him for that lost revenue?
