There is a lot of added software coming from the likes of Symantec &
others that perform reputational services, only you don't see it because
all the spam that they filter out is essentially not seen by the end
user. Same for all of the blacklists like SpamCop etc. That's DNS
reputational services for you. You can go as far as actually not really
knowing what these people do and sub-contracting your email handling to
the Microsoft Cloud or Google/Gmail, or other hosted spam filtering
services.

BTW am I the only person who is still amazed at how many companies
including banks neither use DKIM nor TLS for their emails?

Kindest regards,

Olivier
