Reading that mail.com thread, I must consider that lots of honnest
mail admins get annoyed, and that I still receive a huge number of spams
every day. Sometimes, when you put too many security devices in your
home, you get more annoyed than possible burglars -- and finally
get burgled anyway. The whole mail.com purpose seems paranoid and
more and less stupid to me. Just my 2 pence.
