Dear asshats,
  I appreciate your right to put anti-spam measures in place on your 
MTAs, I even expect them to show up my own misconfigurations, but 
sometimes they're just plan dumb.

I mean, how is this useful:

Diagnostic-Code: X-Postfix; host smtp.ephemeral.net[66.92.69.84] said: 
550
     5.0.0 Spammers... the first waste up against the wall when the 
revolution
     comes. (in reply to MAIL FROM command)

Okay, so you think I'm spamming you (though no, I'm not, you're just 
bouncing mails from a mailing list you SIGNED UP FOR) but for the love 
of christ, please tell me why.  I appreciate I may have something 
misconfigured here, but 550 FOAD isn't helping me diagnose it and get 
your mail to you now is it?
