Send them to us; we're happy to tell them to use Habeas. :-)
(SpamAssassin is a partner, and whitelists mail using our
headers, so those itineraries and e-tickets will sail through SpamAssassin, along
with about 3 dozen other ISP and spam filter partners :-) Of course, if it's
mailing list mail, it *has* to be confirmed opt-in.]
