Yeah, but the biggest one is there are alot of legitimate ANTI-SPAM mail/web hosts that are included in some of the SPAM databases that don't really belong there (spews is probably the worst offender). I know opinions vary widely on this subject, but I don't think anyone should be included by proxy. -- Bud Schneehagen - Tropical Web Creations _/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/ ColdFusion Solutions / eCommerce Development [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.twcreations.com/ 954.721.3452 Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
