The odd this is, I made several posts today, as well as sent numerous e-mails. SOME were delivered right away, others, like this one, just seemed to vanish. Until 3:41 in this case Hmmm... I'd start by checking the IMail SMTP log file, to see if there are any clues in there.

Keith, Well, it wouldn't matter if there was legislation or not, it's not going to stop. If you tell them they HAVE to add ADV to the front of all "spam" it wouldn't work. There would still be plenty who wouldn't. So more laws won't help. Thankfully we have products like Declude and IMgate to help

One word:  MONEY.   For every 1000 or so mailboxes they tar up, one poor unsuspecting sap sends them money for whatever they're peddling.  If you could, essentially for free, blast out 100,000,000 emails knowing that 0.1% of them would send you $10 bucks - do the math... I think that's $100

Back when the mailbox size limit wasn't working in IMail, some mailboxes got up to 70 MB. I cleared a dormant one and 3 weeks later it was up to 30 MB. In some cases, spammers consider a response rate of 0.001% as great. Even the marketeers are beginning to admin that people are so overloade
