Users (even technical ones) aren't reliable for determining what spam is.

Actually, that shows that the tool is indeed quite useful. It tells you that the mail was delivered and the user marked it as spam. That is good useful information indeed. Either the user doesn't want your mail, or the user doesn't know the difference between "delete" and "spam". In either case, the action can be directly linked to the user. It does seem that the user behavior of incorrectly marking mail as spam has been going on far too long. Large webmail providers, PLEASE update your UI to label that choice "Report as spam", not simply "Junk". -- Jay Hennigan - j...@west.net Network Engineering - CCIE #7880 503 897-8550 - WB6RDV _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://chilli.nosignal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mailop
