I appreciate the explanation of your approach very much, but i wonder how many email users are going to complain or report incorrectly blocked emails ? My experience so far has been that quite some email users don't know e.g. what anti-spam blacklists are, and when i provide them with more information they're often intimidated by the, in their view, complexity of it. On one mail-server i've seen a few users use dynamic ip-addresses, and incorrect HELOs. I actually find it quite a hassle to go through the daily copy collected "spam" of ASSP, esp. since most of it is real spam, one tends to keep on pressing the delete button, and i also don't want to do too much whitelisting. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Assp-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/assp-user
