Yes, I agree it would be best to have the user information and enter the domains in assp. I will eventually be able to hook up the LDAP, but right now I don't have that ability with some of these servers (I am using it to proxy 5 servers).
at the same time, in order to move forward I need to find a way to let the users report spam and not spam. Is there any way to do this? thank you...you have a really awesome program.
