This thread has been entertaining me all afternoon.
To be truly honest I couldn't give a **** about where the Spam
is coming from. I wish it just wouldn't come from anywhere.
I don't like to block mail servers either though. I once had mine
blocked and it caused me some really big problems. I was totally
unaware of any mail being relayed through my server and one day got
blacklisted. The problem was about a year ago and I've since fixed
the problem, but still a few Blacklists wont remove my mail server.
Don't get me wrong if I could check my mail just one time and not
get any Spam it would be wonderful. My penis isn't small and even if
it was I wouldn't want pills to make it grow. But I refuse bluntly to
prevent people who want to use the email system for its proper use
from doing so.
Spam is abusing the ability to e-mail, BUT Blacklisting stops
innocent peoples ability to use email.
And to be truly honest most email programs now come with a mail
filter and the end-user can chose what he/she wants to receive.
Surly its their choice anyway.
Thanks
Jason
