Thanks for the answer.  I've never heard that one before.

I remember once I used a 3rd party component set (Indy 9) to do some 
smtp alert emails from a Windows application.  Couldn't get the mails to 
go through for a few particular customers and after some research and 
talking to ISP's, we found out that the component set that I used was 
used to write spamming software and the headers produced by the 
component set were flagged by spamm assasin and others.  Arg.
