Indeed, but that still does not prove they are blacklisting you for this
specific reason. Unless of course you've got a mail from them telling
you so.

Anyway, people blocking use of SAV are quite stupid. CR should really be
seen as spam as it sends real content to innocent people. SAV does not,
it just uses a little bit of your bandwidth to protect domains you own
from trivial spoofing. Yes, I know about mass joe jobs, but that's
something you have to be prepared for if you own a domain name and have
some care for it.
