Also, most likely, the spam being delivered there is going their
directly. Many spammers deliver to the second or third mailhost on
purpose, because most second or third mailhosts can't or don't do all
the checks that the primary does.
Consequently, they have successfully delivered the mail, and charge
their customers accordingly.
