The message from Curtis' mailer implies that it's not a blanket

Perhaps there is or isn't a problem with the sender's mail server,
but C/R is *never* the appropriate method for dealing with such: it's an
inherently abusive, spamming approach that was thoroughly discredited
a decade ago and should never be used.
