So, regardless of what SMTP server he uses, he will still be tagged by the
rule ? Well, that's not very nice of SA.
On the other hand, he also has another email account, and sending email from
that other account did not trigger the same rule. If the SA rule is triggered
because of his originating IP address, then it should be triggered whatever
email account or SMTP server that he uses, right ?
