If your solution is better, then tell us about it. If others think you are pushing services, then they just have to deal with it. If they don't like it, send them to me and I'll tell them where to find a rope to piss up.

I pay Spamarrest for my solution now, as it was the best thing I could find for HoG at the time. It's not like it is my corporate domain or anything-- if your service can do that at 99%, then right on- I'd rather pay you than some stranger anyway. Can you provide a solution on an email-by-email basis, or does it have to be the entire domain?

Lemme know.

I understand your concerns and frustration, but I'm not sure what you want
me to do... So far, you've just criticized my method without offering up a
solution.  What would you have me do?

I have not offered a solution as others may take that as I am pushing my services. I am not going to do that. However I will jump all over C/R systems when ever I have a chance. There are just too many things that are bad about them. Understand there is no perfect solution. If there was, the war on spam would be over.

The best anti-spam solutions are those that use multiple checks/tests to
determine if the message is legitimate or spam. My system runs 143 tests on
each message to determine whether it is legitimate or spam and has been
doing so with reported results from users of 99% of e-mail into their mail
box is clean of spam.

Many people use GFI products successfully. There are many other products out
there.

The point is C/R is problematic and is arbitrary. It has been proven time
and time again that an arbitrary single test of a message causes problems.

Sorry, but I and many other professional e-mail administrators knowingly
look at C/R as worse than rejecting/deleting e-mail based on a RBL!
