I am assuming you mean 22 consecutive characters without a break? The subject you gave your post would violate a 22 character limit.


Even at 22 consecutive I think this is a rather short sighted, over the top and totally worthless way to try and stop spam. There are a lot of systems that depend on subject lines with long confirmation codes, including some spam programs! I would think an ISP that breaks this many systems is going to lose some customers.
