Sorry if this is a bit off-topic.

I'm looking into installing DCC (Distributed Checksum Clearninghouse) software.

The page at https://www.dcc-servers.net/dcc/INSTALL.html says:

"The free license is intended to cover individuals and organizations including Internet service providers using DCC to filter their own mail. Organizations selling anti-spam appliances or managed mail services are not eligible for the free license."

However, when I look at the actual LICENSE file that ships with the software, it says:

 * Permission to use, copy, modify, and distribute this software without
* changes for any purpose with or without fee is hereby granted, provided * that the above copyright notice and this permission notice appear in all
 * copies and any distributed versions or copies are either unchanged
 * or not called anything similar to "DCC" or "Distributed Checksum
 * Clearinghouse".
 *
 * __________________________________________________

I don't see anything in there about disallowing usage of the software by "managed mail services."
