I can tell you one thing about the spam filters here at CisNet..... I HATE THEM.
No messages will get through to me and none can be sent by me if they contain a dollar sign ($) in the subject. Those several messages with suject: M$lookout did not get through to my inbox. I got them in the Arachne-digest because the spam filter only looks at the subject line not the body of the message. That's why I had to change the subject line on my replies to that thread so that they read "lookout" instead of "M$lookout" In addition..... AFAIK, I am still unable to receive messages from some domains in Russia. :(( Mithgoll, If you are listening, could you please try again?
