<snip> I too think C-R spam 'prevention' is the lazy-mans approach at filtering spam. People can easily create their own whitelists based on their maillogs or mailhistory. <snip> Unfortunately, I feel the majority of the solutions offered cater to the non-technical. The process of simplifying often results in a product that requires the least amount of hands-on from the end-user. Coupled with the fact that the average end-user is not interested in learning a process that takes more then 5 paragraphs to explain and more than 10 minutes to implement (without some sort of "wizard") and I think we have a good idea why the layman's approach is so prevalent. - Michienne Dixon Network Administrator liNKCity 312 Armour Rd.
