How recent are your researches into this?
Up until a few weeks ago, the above was true for
mailgw.netvision.net.il, plus, they allowed an unlimited number of
recipients for each message. Indeed, an ideal greenhouse for spammers.
Recently, however, they changed schemes, and I know I am no longer
able to send messages from work (we are connected to Barak Online)
even when I use my home address, which is a valid netvision address.
But I am able to send messages from home (where I have a Netvision
PPP account) even though netvision appears in neither header nor
recipient.
Furthermore, they no longer allow you to send a message to an
unlimited number of recipients. I am a member of a voluntary
organization, and we send occasional messages to our supporters. The
head of the Amuta used to just use his Outlook to send the message
(using mailgw, he is also a Netvision client). It appears that they
don't allow more than 25 recipients in one go.
So I think the contradictions we see in this thread are probably due
to time lag - some people remember what mailgw *used* to do, and some
know what it does *now*.
