Hi laz, and All,
This is one of the fairly new anti-spam/anti-virus tactics. You use a
service that makes the sender confirm they are the original sender of the
e-mail before they'll pass it along to you. You can see how this would
defeat most spammers who wish to remain anonymous and self-propagating
viruses that don't have the capability to respond to a confirmation reply
request. Of course, it's a pain for the mail sender... but I think
senders that you OK (by way of the confirmation) get added to a "white
list" of "friends", so that next time their mail goes on through.
George Lunt ..... so. cal.
