I understand what you're saying. At the same time, there is 0 barrier to sending mail to my gmail account, yet gmail seems to somehow get 100% of my SPAM into my SPAM folder without my having all of my friends sign an agreement that they're allowed to send me mail. Evidently, there's technology out there that effectively filters out SPAM without explicit white-lists. -Seb _______________________________________________ website-discuss mailing list [email protected]
