I'm not a fan of the C/R philosophy. It seems much too annoying when controlling spam can simply be resolved by having an efficient spam filtering system. Why place the burden of controlling one's spam on their contacts? The few people who I've attempted to e-mail who use this method I give up on. After reading your message, the C/R methodology appears even more annoying than I initially thought. The fact that RiskFreeMail is unresponsive to complaints is particularly troublesome. I can just envision flocks of the bored setting up temporary accounts with the sole purpose of annoying list users and moderators. I'm glad your probes found the culprit and hope there's a way to prevent this type of problem from surfacing again. - -- Kevin Coates Dewitt, NY USA Using TB! v2.11 Beta/6 under Windows XP 5.1.2600 SP1 ________________________________________________________________ (see kludges for my pgp key) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQFAqsoFvZSrVDqOXK0RAlhAAJ4oUsidf6SE79TuCZ3nU/xgYzrgvACfSGcA nND+VSjLI5mhDOybdAGlrgA= =nVx3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.10.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
