Wiz,

it is obviously you who is not seeing the big picture. You are still
talking about email even though it is not one percent related to what I
said. Also, I have already told you that the spammers use robot software
that can even use image recognition, let alone automated subscriptions.
IP and key word blocking is all that one can do about this, but I am
repeating myself.

I feel really sorry for you that you live in a such small world that has
no room for other people's problems, particularly with your profession
in mind.

Udo
