www.constantcontact.com - they are a "legitimate" bulk emailer. I use quotes around Legitimate because I am a rabid anti-spammer, but I do recognize that bulk email is a fact of life these days and Constant Contact has the grudging OK of one of the big anti-spam groups, SpamCop.net.

It is going to 12000 customers that have asked to be notified by email. I got that script late last week and I have it set up to run from my machine, relay off my exchange server, through my Ironport, and out my firewall. I do not host the mail at imcu.com and that is the address space I want to sent it from. In testing yesterday it seems that everyone will flag me as a spammer because the email source can not be reverse looked up properly. Now I do own a second domain. imcu.org and I do have an MX record that points to my firewall. This seems to be the better way to do it. Have it come from x...@imcu.org but have a reply to of x...@imcu.com. I do host the imcu.org mail server internally so I could just relay off that smtp server through the ironport and out the firewall with little or no worries of getting blacklisted. Right??? Am I even close to thinking this through correctly?? No virus found in this incoming message.
