We are using Message Labs to start spam blocking.  Currently we just have 
it in the checking phase - it changes the subject line by adding SPAM to 
the beginning.  Shortly we will be telling it to just trash this stuff.

Many midrange ezines are being targeted as spam.  I wonder if it is truly 
basing it on the content or the way that many of them mass mail themselves 
out through some other service other than their own.

Sample of those affected:
anything from MC Press Online (which must be getting a few of these 
because they recently sent out an email on how they may need to be 
whitelisted - which are network people don't seem to be able to get right 
for them).

I've even had a few from the midrange-l come back flagged as spam.

Here's the page source on one from MC Press Online:
