Yes. I know that people put so much effort into DSPAM and that's brilliant. But from a big picture point of view DSPAM is rather silly and I blow my nose in its general direction.
Convention over configuration lets the experts (clever people reading this) build their area of expertise into conventions that combine into a systematic approach that embodies best practice. This doesn't mean that jocks will suddenly start adminstering mail servers and destroy the world as we know it. It would mean more people would embrace best practice. Elegance and simplicity is attractive. And well designed conventions can elegantly abstract complexity in clever and usuable ways. And no, I'm not going to put my time where my mouth is and help out. I read this mailing list becuase I am the head of a large unsolicited bulk emailing operation that wants to stay a step ahead of you guys. But still I am giving you some free advice here so be thankful for that at least. Thank you!
