When I said our intuitions about UI in the IETF are wrong, this is exactly what I had in mind. As others have said in more detail, there is no evidence that users make "intelligent" decisions about what is spam, and considerable evidence that they don't. We're not saying that users are stupid, beause they aren't. But we are saying that their intuitions about how to treat their incoming mail are a poor match for the reality of what's in the mail. -- Regards, John Levine, jo...@taugh.com, Primary Perpetrator of "The Internet for Dummies", Please consider the environment before reading this e-mail. https://jl.ly _______________________________________________ dmarc mailing list dmarc@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dmarc
