So, the 99 users who believe that the message is black should each add a rule (in the case of outlook/exchange) or add to personal BL because of 1 minority guy who believes it should be white? (And in the case of multiple recepients, this 1 guy wouldn't get it anyway)
Sorry, but it reminds me of Spock... 'the needs of the many out-weighs the needs of the few...or the one' However, I do think there's a good solution somewhere (that fits all scenarios)... We just haven't found it yet :) What if: when multiple receipents are received, each is checked in whitelist for sender/recepient match. If matched, put into whitelist array, if not, blacklist array. Then, the message could be passed for the whitelist array, dropped for the blacklist array. Just a thought.
