The very fact that I could subscribe someone without their knowledge to effector is an indication that while you take freedom of speech very seriously, you fail to take into account that some people might not want to hear what you are saying. Actually I got their permission for the experiment. The point is that peole have a right to control access to their mailbox. It is theirs, after all. Collaberative efforts to control spam are not unwarranted. Not everyone runs a server like we do that has over 27,000 restrictions against specific email addresses, domains, IP addresses, IP blocks an even top-level domains to block entire countries. When we restrict something from our network, it doesn't get in. Yet, we use Razor, DCC, Pyzor and a number of RBLs in a different manner. Mail flagged by external sources is quarantined and examined before permitting it to pass. If people use these external collaberative aids foolishly, that can't be helped. Razor and similar services don't block anything. -- Sed quis custodiet ipsos custodes? ========================================================================== Robin Lynn Frank - Director of Operations - Paradigm-Omega, LLC Copyright and PGP/GPG info in mail or message headers.
