Thank you!

But isn't that what the subject line says? And the original email
contains:

Maybe it would help clarifying that almost any use of the above
mentioned Open DNS resolvers qualifies as using a remoteAS (therefore
contributing to its control of exit capacity) - even if that resolver is
configured as a fallback.
Thanks again for adjusting your configuration.
