So is dropping all incoming mail. Virtually ANYTHING reduces the number of worm mails spread by clients like Outlook, if it involves rejecting mail. That's inevitable, given that Outlook worms are one of the most common forms of mail on the internet. It's not a particularly interesting observation to make. Blacklisting based on dial-up or dynamic status is nothing more than an effort to turn the internet into an oligarchy, where only the rich and powerful can control mail. It's a power grab. That's all it does and all it's intended to do. -- .''`. ** Debian GNU/Linux ** | Andrew Suffield : :' : http://www.debian.org/ | `. `' | `- -><- |
