I discuss this further in FAQ 5.4. I've been using a 14d timeout for my dated envelope sender address and haven't had any problems with them being spammed since this address is harder to glean than From or Reply-To. 14d is probably excessive, but who cares if it's not being exploited? > It's probably easy enough to just ignore mailing lists altogether > (Although, I haven't thought very much about the possible > implications of doing this) I'm not sure what you mean by this? _____________________________________________ tmda-users mailing list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://tmda.net/lists/listinfo/tmda-users
