I check for spam with my own mailscanner box (I'm not a company, and it
helps spot spammers, compromised hosts etc), but the one below me is out of
my control and currently all my mail passes through it.

Any ideas about my original problem?

Alex

Doesn't adding {Spam?} to emails originating from within your company
give the impression that your own users are sending spam?
