So, I'm just wondering: I figure I provide a free service in

Now that policies are getting restricted, am I going to be getting
paid for reporting spam?

If you're not a part of the market segment being charged for use of the servers, how does that change affect you?


Frankly, I don't see any of cloudmark's "restrictions" as anything more than protecting themselves from abuse/exploitation or an overbearing burden of supporting a giant ISP for free.

The provide a free software product, I don't see why they also have to provide free servers with absolutely no limits on use of those free servers.

Let's face it, razor servers and their operation cost money.. real money. These aren't a couple of old p-90's running in a closet off of a few kbits/sec borrowed off a neighbor's DSL line.

I don't know their numbers, but I'd be very surprised if the operational costs of razor's NOC is under 10k per month (server maintenance, power, hvac, decent leased line internet connection).
