Re[2]: Wireless, Bat K9 spam filter

I could be wrong, I only looked at it once, came to that conclusion and thought I'd look at it later when I worked out how to tunnel pop and smtp through http. if the conclusion is correct, you can look at a software called HTTPORT, which has this meaning exactly - a TCP over HTTP type of tunnel. however, you'll need a server-mode host to keep the other end of the tunnel. -- Best regards, vitaliemailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Current version is 3.65.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

FYI, I've had mine turned off for a long time, but today my ISP's filter flagged most TBUDL messages as spam. I'm too lazy to go through all of the messages to see wether they had the header, but they were the only ones erroneously flagged as spam. I've turned down my ISP's filtering aggressiveness, so we'll see if that solves the problem. If not, I'll have to contact them directly. (In retrospect, it's good that I don't have spam automatically deleted, allowing me to check the spam folder through their web access.)

It identifies which mailer is being used to send out the e-mail.

Though not quite as much as for an unknown TB. I would believe anything, so I will just wait and see if this has helped with my immediate problems. -- Graham Current version is 3.64.01 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
