Since when is replying with one-two words (one-time only) considered
to be measurable work? That's like saying that it is unfair that you
and I are working here (writing this) when many others are only
reading this. :-)

I see it as an effort for the common good. I would be more than happy
to do it for you. Like an unfortunate cost that all might share in
(eventually) to avoid a problem that many will share eventually.
Sobig, for example.

And it might be good for the security of all, if a virus or worm
arrives in email spam (that I have not stopped with CM) and then
replicates itself and sends itself from my machine.

I've been lucky with my training and education, I guess.

Well, beyond the matter of viruses and worms, a false positive or
negative likely causes a delay in reading a message. That would be a
hassle for people needing a quick response. I can stop using email
completely and be sure to never cause a hassle for anybody, ever.

I wish you all the best,


David
