It may be related to this questionable policy:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A19567-2005Jan18.html

With their lame explanation:

(While it appears Verizon has targetted non-American mail sources, anytime 
you wield such a blunt instrument you're likely to clobber unintended 
parties.)
