Agree. It happens that UOL doesn't consider this a bug, but a feature. 
They SELL this "service" and will change the "antispam" behavior only 
when their own users start to change ISP because their messages are 
being rejected by a number of other domains. On the other hand, being 
the UOL antispam is an optional PAID service, not all of their 
clients use it. Those who don't probably will not know why their 
messages don't get to the recipients and therefore will not take 
action agaist UOL. That's why UOL doesn't care to solve the problem.
