Are you comfortable throwing out the baby with the bathwater here?

IE, in order to eliminate the possibility of spam from dialsprint.net
you're going to ban all legitmate mail from legitimate dialsprint.net
users.

It would be one thing to do this if dialsprint.net was known to harbor and
encourage spammers, quite another thing if their AUP forbids it and they
are victims of the spammers just as the rest of us are.
