So wanadoo and orange seem to send a ofr_506 because the scanned mail was
found to be SPAM. This is independent of DKIM, SPF, DMARC but from them
scanning the email in the DATA and saying nope. Usually that is because too
many people complained about a set of email and the weight of email with
that content is getting blocked. I don't know if the school moving to
another provider will fix that as this isn't because of the IP it was sent
from (they block before the DATA is sent in that case). [My guess is that
someone wants to move to something else and is using this as the Casus
Belli to do so. ]

I don't really have a suggestion or solution to either problem..
