Hi, all --- For the past few weeks, I've been lurking here and learning a great deal about my favorite mail client, The Bat!
Those who were critical of the Spam Assassin folks for jumping to unwarranted conclusions about The Bat!'s ratware capabilities might not be aware that this very question was recently discussed at some length in NANAE (news.admin.net-abuse.email), the leading anti-spammers' newsgroup. For the convenience of those who do not follow NANAE and missed this very interesting discussion, I have used Google to compile a web page including all of the messages in the four threads posted between 2 April and 30 July of this year. It may be accessed here: <http://personalpages.bellsouth.net/g/o/gold3062/batspam.htm> You will find two posts from Maxim Masiutin in there, along with contributions by several highly qualified professionals such as Vern Schryver. (Vern, the owner of Rhyolite Software <http://www.rhyolite.com>, is one of the world's most highly qualified experts on email and the internet. He has been involved in it for many years, and was one of the authors of the RFCs.) I have included hyperlinks to the actual Google searches so that those who wish to do so can easily check the archives for themselves.
