Is a2i rejecting incoming email based on RSS? even for customers not
using Nojunk?

- --

Wednesday, one of my clients reported some email to me bounced.
I have Nojunk filtering turned off.

The mail was mailed to 'pierre@rahul.net', by relaying through
209.157.26.19, and was rejected with this error:

554 Service unavailable; [209.157.26.19] blocked using 
relays.mail-abuse.org, reason: Open relay problem - see 
<URL:http://www.mail-abuse.org/cgi-bin/nph-rss?209.157.26.19>

The relaying server doesn't make it 100% explicit that this rejection
came from 'rahul.net' (popmx1.rahul.net?) but that seems likely.
Although the man pages don't seem to say anything about RSS.

RSS is another of several "kill them all and god will sort them out"
schemes of the anti-junk mail crusade.

Pierre.
