Pardon the plug here - we were inundated (sp?) with this type of email
before purchacing Invaiant's invURIBL add-on for declude.  Works like a
charm.

Used the 30 day trial first to tweak settings, make sure it would do what we
were after, etc. then got the license key.

invURIBL and Sniffer are the 2 best 3rd party subscriptions we have for
declude.

Hi,

I learned that today, but IMail is not able to use this service. IMail does
not offer, that an service can read/parse a mail at runtime, i guess.
