Don't slap a "www." on every hostname.
(its http://tmda.sourceforge.net)
I won't email someone who uses TMDA. If they really want my mail then
they'll accept it. I'm not "subscribing" to every mailbox out there.
Besides, how hard is it to make a bot to auto-respond to it (and get
the spam whitelisted)? Any anti-spam efforts must be made in two
places :
the source -- don't send spam and don't allow your system to be
used to send spam
the destination -- hueristics (or human) based scanning to
identify messages
The only perfect solution is a social one in which people stop being
rude (sending spam).
