No problem at all, they're below!

That does sound like an interesting theory - I looked up 49pence.com
and they're a hosting and co-lo provider run by the same company that
owns the datacenter where my box is hosted (it's a debian VPS). The
49pence.com mx server doesn't appear in the 'good' logs, perhaps this
is something i should take up with my hosting provider?

Thanks for your help!

Cheers,

Tim
