Could you be kind enough to tell me the name of the provider?   We
recently had a problem with a LA provider's customer bouncing mail off of
a customer's server.   Unfortunately, I'd have to dig for the specifics.

If this is still going on I'd like to blackhole their entire netblock to
prevent it from happening again.

Thanx.
