This may help shed some light on the issue. The example we posted above
was sent from a home PC on a cable modem, through a dedicated SMTP server,
to an account on the same server as the SMTP server, which *would* make
the first hop a dynamic IP one based off of the cable modem on the PC.
When running tests from sending mail from a cable modem PC through a
dedicated SMTP server that goes to an account on a different server, the
DYNABLOCK check did not hit it, which is good.
So, it seems the DYNABLOCK check will hit for any email sent from a PC on
dialup/cable/dsl that uses an SMTP server for their domain and the
destination is on the same server as the SMTP server. Just trying to fully
understand the 2.6 point rule before we "tweak it".
