1) I think Apple is only filtering for spam, they just aren't very good at it

2) I think Don's real name is Dan, he is the guy who brought us 
Inform Init, soon to be updated, or so he says

3) be careful what you post to Apple's discussion lists about this, 
they delete your post if you don't approve of their incompetent 
interference with your mail
