So you still generate your little bit to add to the general spam?

And can you be 100% sure that your spam-traps have not also junked valid
honest mail?

And can you be sure that you are not yourself victim to your own or your
'greylisting' overzealous filtering (censorship?)?


I know a certain mail list that very nearly didn't get off the ground
because a certain ISP's anti-spam junked all the (phishing-like?) invites...

So, innocent users get junked at both ends...


And so the question remains: What is there that solves or at the very
least removes the present spam/phishing email mess?

Cheers,
Martin
