Doesn't it give you pause that the company providing this filtering service doesn't provide you basic instructions on how to setup a proper test environment? Did they recommend you simply swap your MX record now and switch it back if you don't like the service? If so that would give me great pause. Why are you hesitant to name the service in question? Doing so may prove more beneficial than the question you've asked. -- Stan
