Hi!
i have spam with this header:

Is there any way, based on its fqdn, to know whether an Amazon smtp host is
public or dedicated?
Apologies for what may seem like a silly question, but what's the difference?
I'm assuming he's asking if there's a chance that it's an open-relay SMTP server
or one dedicated to Amazon client systems.
I'd be shocked if it was an open-relay, it'd probably be hammered by now if it
were.
There's enough spam coming from AWS clients as-is. I've seen malware and phishes
coming out of AWS, I wouldn't wouldn't unconditionally trust anything from
them.
