Hi all,
Sorry that I can't say anything nice on this thread but my feelings on

I remember a number of threads about backscatter prevention, but I
don't remember the result. Perusing the archives isn't much more
enlightening. Where are we on this?
In particular, other than removing all but one of the aliases, have
