I *really* do not like spam or my favorite language
and resources being used to support spammers.

I have had my own rebol mass mailer for years and it does get used to 
send mail to thousands of (opt in) addresses several times a year ...
But I would never blindly hand the code out to those who might use to 
inflict themselves on others.

Massimiliano please consider voluntarily raising the bar for access to 
to your very well done program that makes it unfortunately easy for 
spammers to abuse.

Library people please consider a "do no harm" policy for scripts 
included the public resource.

I realize this is a very thin line to tread and censorship has it own 
problems. But for Rebol to become known as the spammers best friend 
(even if it very well could be) is not the sort of advocacy I think is 
good for Rebol.


Thank you.
Tom Conlin
