A little bit sorry for the top-post ... but .. Re: Kofi Annan's quote
from the post dated today at around 6:20 PM PST:
"The problem has risen to a level requiring that the United Nations be
aware of the issue and to take steps to address the problem.*"*
I simply do not agree. The U.N. has far more important and pressing
issues to deal with than SPAM, which is essentially a corporate
productivity problem.
Consider: Oh, geez, the hundreds of truly consequential issues facing a
global assembly of governments in today's world.
Compare that with (from my own example) the several hundreds of SPAM
message I filter for my staff, each day. Ok ... after a weekend off,
it's somewhere areound 1,500 SPAM message ... regardless, with a tiny
bit of traning, any human can be trained to quickly scan the company
queue and remove any of today's SPAM from the company inboxes.
While I agree that even that is too much for a small business to be
satisfied with (it certainly won't make the company go broke), it's
simply not that great an issue, when compared to world-affecting issues
like Poverty and whatnot.
I say "good luck" with your proposal but NOT "good luck" getting the
money you want to get from the U.N. to be put toward "solving" this
problem. It's simply not an issue I believe we should be spending any
portion of that particular budget for.

Allowing IMAP/POP to Send Email
Nonsense.
...is there an echo in here? ;)
Having also said the same thing ... Doesn't part of Microsoft's
extension to IMAP (called MAPI, oh so original) also support sending
via IMAP?
