Earthlink announced a C-R spam system on May 7,l 2003, and was sued the
same day by MailBlocks for infringing MailBlocks' claimed C-R patents.
NYT article:

One paper on the issue of ELNK's spam mitigation system noted that
initial projections were for 50% adoption by ELNK's 5 million
subscribers, likely making it the most heavily used C-R system in use.
Peace.
