There's no need to actually do that during the SMTP conversation. All that is necessary, from the view of those users, is filtering the stuff _somehow_.

(Well, there are some POP3 users, as well.) >From reading the docs, I'm optimistic. MfG Kai -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
