Robert,
I agree with everything you said, especially the domain-specific trailer
text and security issues, but I'd like to point out that our EZSignUp
utility appears to be a solution for your alias protection problem. Try
the EZSignUp demo at http://mail.hksi.net, and attempt to create an
account like "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" or "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". It won't let you,
since the adduser.exe utility that's being triggered behind the scenes
does an alias check. EZSignUp will work with external databases or
IMail's built-in database.
All the Best,
