Challenge/response is one of the most vile inventions that has ever been applied to the concept of Internet e-mail. I would violently oppose any integration of such features into any project I was involved with. At the very least, you would have to be very, very careful how such a system was created, so as to avoid the problem where the "cure" is far worse than any possible disease that you might have. -- Brad Knowles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Consultant & Author Co-author of SAGE Booklet #15 "Internet Postmaster: Duties and Responsibilities" Founding Member and Platinum Individual Sponsor of LOPSA: <http://www.lopsa.org> Papers: <http://tinyurl.com/tj6q4> LinkedIn Profile: <http://tinyurl.com/y8kpxu> ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
