We are currently seeing emails from external customers being marked as
spam in SA when they come from an ISP called Shaw.  I have been talking
to their tech support about these emails as I think that this is all on
their end due to the format of the email.  As a Shaw customer myself.  I
sent an email from my account (through their web interface) and here is
the message headers

========================================================================
============

As the message is coming in as HTML, I took a look at the source and
this is all it contains

========================================================================
============
<BODY>test for shaw.</BODY>
========================================================================
============

So I understand why SA marks it as it does, but according to Shaw, they
cannot change any settings that would change the score. I have asked
them to either properly format the HTML or make it plain text, which is
not something they say can be done.

Has anyone had experience with IPlanet that would know if there is some
setting that they could adjust?

I know that I can whitelist them, but we prefer that they would fix
their system rather than we have to maintain a whitelist.

Hopefully I have enough information for someone to assist.

Thanks

Martin Carnegie
