SA> Why? The first why is - they're not paying attention and this was probably due to some dictionary attack that picked up the address. The second why is - I don't know, yet. I would need to see the message to figure that out. Please zip up a raw copy of the message and send it to support@ so that I can research it. Most likely we've just not seen the message here for some reason. For example, we may have filtered it with some rule that you are not getting or are not using. In that case, it would get blocked here but not on your system. The second possibility is that we've skipped the message for some safety reason (trying to avoid false positives) though it seems unlikely in this case. Once I see it I will be able to tell more.
