Just an extension to the question/answer -

I seem to recall that MS whitelisting/blacklisting only checks the
envelop(e) of the email, resulting in only checking the final recipient and
the original sender in the envelope. Is this accurate?

And that SA whitelisting/blacklisting will check all in the header, meaning
relays, recipient, and sender and anything else. Is this accurate?

So, in some cases, SA whitelisting/blacklisting may catch those pesky,
relayed-from-somewhere emails that MS would not due to scanning and flagging
anything in the entire header. Is this accurate?

Thanks,

Steve Campbell
