Robin: Of course we are not interested. This is a one-man shop with an annual budget of about $50K. Why you put out the teaser on the Spamassassin User list is totally beyond me. Your "entry" level definition is very poorly defined. You'd get a lot more small shops if you found a pricing structure that made some sense. For the 1,000 good email messages I receive each day, there are probably 25,000 connections attempted. Most small shops are going to be in this range. You should either have a reasonable cut-off for the freebie, structure your pricing reasonably, or not entice sysops (like myself) to go through all the trouble of installing and testing your product, just to find it can not be licensed at any reasonable level. When I read the 10K limit, I thought "Hey, that's ten times what I receive - I'll try it!" Dan Barker, President Software Projects, Inc.

You told me that was over the "limit" for the freebie and you'd get back to me with pricing info. Should I contact Ken?
