William,

   I use my ISP to send emails.  I have used a local mail server to send emails in the distant past, and it has been filtered out by spam filters.  

   Recently, I sent out a batch of emails with a reply-to address, and that got filtered.

   In 1998, my ISP service changed its URL from echo-on.net to eol.ca.  I am still getting spam for hgibson at echo-on.net.
