Notes
Our spam detection system relies on the way in which the messages are sent, rather than on the content of the mail messages, so we do not run as much risk of misidentifying a legitimate message as spam.
Delisting guidance
None. Offending hosts are delisted fairly quickly, with the "penalty" time determined by the number of times this particular host has relayed or originated spam in the past. This way, transient spammers are listed for a short time, and will be delisted once the problem is corrected. Persistent spammers will be listed for a longer time, and will presumably sooner or later show up in many of the larger lists of known open relays or spam sources.
