Deborah did you, yourself READ that newsletter and the one(s) that addressed
this "from an unknown name & address" issue?

What Langa did was just an experiment, and a very important one. Yes, the
results are scary, but they that's not his doing, it's merely a snapshot of
what's going on right now . People can argue over the percentages all they
want, but I can confirm that more and more of my email does NOT get
delivered. And it doesn't matter what software you use. TB is a lot better
than many others, but we are facing a very, very serious problem here with
BOTH the spammers and those idiotic "challenge-based" solutions. But this is
getting a bit OT, isn't it?
