I disagree with you and robert about remote mail admins not giving a damn.
Every mail admin i've talked to online, made the efforts to fix the
problems, because I am hosting mail for some companies that do some serious
business. Lost mail means lost business! I've helped them understand why
they need a reverse dns record in the first place (yes many don't know!),
and explained many other aspects of mail administration to them, and they
were more than happy to help. Obviously, I was not the only person blocking
their mail, and they were relieved to know they were more compliant now, and
that their mail would be accepted by more servers on the net.
It reminds me of that story with the little kid, about changing the world.
Unlike others (donno if you saw the movie "American Splendor") I do beleive
that people are basically good inside :-)
My friends call me a fatal optimist.
