I hate to see us losing the users Chris, but convincing them to move their 
email portal back to their own ISP does seems to be the best advice to pass 
on via the unsub message sent.  And make it plain that moving to AOL, who 
has now started the same miss-conceived spam control stuff just in the last 
2 weeks, will not bypass the ban.  If enough people crawl up Yahoo's and 
AOL's nose about it, they will eventually hear the message.

Personally, incoming UCE here has in the last 2 weeks, been virtually 
reconfigured to be bayes poison.  So I am deleting 20 to 40 a day so they 
do not contaminate my bayes database.  I am also slowly building a list of 
ipv4 addresses, which if found in the headers, get it deleted from the 
server without ever being downloaded.  And I am not fussy, that list even 
has some class B addresses in it, and one class A.  Lots of class C, but 
zip Class D, no use blocking a class D unless you have a 10,000 terabyte 
drive to store them on.

Cheers, Gene
