And that too only partially solves the problem, as it pushes the problem
back upstream, which is fine if the only thing upstream happens to be
the spammer, unfortunately thats rarely the case.  In fact if you use an
ISP's store and forward facility as a secondary MX theres a good chance
thats where your rejects will end up!
