HA! Ok, in the past AOL sucked in the anti-spam arena. Today... Well it's a whole different story. We receive about ~3 billion emails a day. ~1.5 billion are dropped at the gateways and never see in-boxes. another 750 million are tagged as spam and members don't see them unless they want to, and another 700 million or so are delivered to inboxes. We've prosecuted spammers and sent at least one to jail. Our spam-fighting filters and tools are probably the best in the industry. And I don't say that because I work in the anti-spam organization, I say it because I believe it after seeing it first hand. :-) -- Christian http://photography.skofteland.net -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
