(I'm not even surprised, John, and I don't know if it's normal)

Last month we got 2806 complaints from the same email address in a single
day, on the Libero FBL. Apparently their webmail UI makes it really easy to
select plenty of messages and apply the action "spam complaints".
Although extreme in this case, this kind of things happens from time to
time, roughly once a month around 1000 complaints per day for a single guy,
mostly with Libero, but Yahoo seems to have the same kind of ... "feature".

We don't experience issues when this happens, fortunately. But even if we
did, of course that would be problematic, but I'm glad enough already that
such mechanism exists, and that I'm able to make any people complaining
_not_ receive the emails again.
(yes, I said "any people", and I'm looking at you intensely, Microsoft).

Point is, I don't consider FBL mechanisms flawless, there's always a way to
get unexpected results from it.
