Unfortunately, we're stuck with SMTP as it's currently standardized, and I do not see either of the proposals I mentioned becoming standards-track any time soon. Even if they are widely accepted by the standards community, I don't see MTA authors adopting them quickly, and even if MTA authors adopt them, ratware authors won't. We're stuck. > Yes, but how do you seperate my address from another address at the same > domain? Give 28,000 users an address like [EMAIL PROTECTED] It's impractical. Some MTAs will batch together recipients that have the same MX host, so that kind of indirection is all for naught.
