I use TMDA by Jason R. Mastaler. And it just works. Like, > 100%. I'm reading mail from a pop server, so maintaining the white-list isn't trivial for me. Of course, I could just punch a few holes in a few firewalls and have the mail delivered to my actual machine... *pondering* My objection to TDMA is basically this -- it requires that the sender deals with the problem. If somebody sends me a mail, I don't want them to have to respond to some automatic message before being allowed to actually communicate with me. It seems unneighborly. And spam hasn't annoyed me to that point. Yet. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen
