I was fearful that I might trigger off something similar. Suppose I 
filter a particular type of spam message claiming, to come from say 
"Joe Soap Corp" to go to Joe Soap's antiphishing department. But if Joe 
Soap's antiphishing department sends me an acknowledgment, that will be 
relayed back to them and so on.....
