..and for those who don't have access to the WashPo, that was in 2020, and he 
was just arrested again for repeat offending, and "Police arrested Thornton 
again and were surprised he was still employed by Fairfax County Public 
Schools." (Because of the email notification they had sent in 2020 which, of 
course, was never delivered, but the police didn't know that.)

This is one of the primary reasons that three of our data response codes that 
receiving systems get when querying the IADB DNSL (what senders know as "the 
Good Senders List") are:

127.3.200.120   Legally mandated email – email from this IP address consists 
entirely of communications that are required by law

127.3.200.130   Court-ordered email – email from this IP address consists 
entirely of communications that have been ordered by a court of law such as 
public notice of service or notifications of class action lawsuits to members 
of the class

127.3.200.255   Services the emergency alert or first-responder sector – email 
from this IP address consists of time-critical urgent or emergency 
communications

Of course, if the sender isn't certified with is - or the receiving system 
doesn't query us - that doesn't help, but we *are* trying hard to do our part.
