Yes, it is "a" "common" place holder... But for how long?????   Shouldn't a
company be on top of that based on the type business they are in?  Lookup
those IP ranges to see if they those ranges are listed on any list; use DNS
that is also not listed on any URI lookup?  Normally, what... 7 to 10 days
max for have a REVDNS to populate?  Have you noticed now... The REVDNS now
shows .declude.com (ironically after I mentioned it)?  When did their move
occur... Over a month ago?  Yes.

That's not what I said on the REVDNS alone Sandy.  What I said was:

"...dotted/dashed IP address used by most.... filters and external filters
to detect the dotted/dashed IP"

"Whitelisting based just on a to/from/return address is not enough as these
can be forged.  In the past we used both the to/from/return address AND the
REVDNS as the "whitelisting"."

---------
More important, why would you think that whitelisting based on the REVDNS
domain of a known and targeted anti-spam company would be trustworthy?
