Re: Mainly a public sector issue
If I email someone with a gmail.com email address, you assume it is US based right?
Let's not do assumptions, I just dug up the 5 machines that handle email for gmail.com.
Here is the list:
74.125.200.27
74.125.25.27
173.194.72.27
74.125.136.27
74.125.204.27
Paste that list into <a href='http://www.ipligence.com/iplocation">http://www.ipligence.com/iplocation</a> and see for yourself.
