Not all challenges work as you are describing, David, which is what pisses most of us off who are complaining about them -- they come from the whitelist service itself, and buried in the body is something to the effect of:

"You have sent an e-mail to John Doe. In order to prove that you are a human, hit reply, leaving the subject line intact."

Why should we have to read what appears to be a spam message to find out that we have sent someone a message just so we can confirm that we actually wanted to send him a message?

So when I see a message from mailduster.com I assume it's another worthless piece of spam itself.

<Mailduster Privacy System>[EMAIL PROTECTED] is the FROM: of the most recent one of these messages I got -- please tell me how I could tell which of my many correspondents I sent that to, or how I could tell it is a whitelist response rather than a spam message advertising its service?
