This *should* not be acceptable (and it's very annoying if you are a
legitimate sender who has his email swallowed like this) but this method
works well for the big mail service providers, who all seem to do it.
Many of their users don't even care that, as a result, they are missing
mail from legitimate contact and customers.

You'd think that customer pressure would force the service providers to
act more sensibly but because the customers don't *see* the problem they
don't care about it, even small business customers who lose business as
a result.
