You keep bringing up wordpress, a web application. There is nothing being listed by uceprotect that would prohibit a honest (or even dishonest) customer from running a wordpress site. Sending email from a wordpress site is much easier to do through a MX provider than to self host, so why are you even advocating for self hosted wordpress sites to host their own email? - -Jim P. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEE3RmV4WutJ2KyCS2zPcxbabkKGJ8FAmAJsdgACgkQPcxbabkK GJ8HWA//fyw9PtQpyBEuyj9OTLSlexrESusenEzdLr08G/hZjzMECDF6uaJlflqV aQ+cIVkJEEVvOZvFjjkw7kbQeRCRTqxBuOA4OH5ntkpmrp/1rI+6BAMTz+8y/cdc iOZjo0TnsP6/ddwJh48PsNyYDi/zzqCIdFKQUnBTJJILi5TAJAK1xtdnyqaqA1vP QXT3jnuSzzzdW96r/H74YC/GUZSUDBputeBsX/JV69oBVqkEyGV5dVmvYO9IZsTF ZujjdXF0kglfk2P+3naO1Gw5F7ypVWWs4FtNXtRgUTzbOjbHLbSlzi9TV8ExPGw6 ByuUff6C1KEbKTBsOvzaO9ZGSuDBPKwgkv4lCJHN69NtWxWs0gW0tG9eQGF308oD GwBFY0Xwok+J39vek3ylpellJHHal20vzxWV8P0wk51F9EM4flXZnzDm3RTkNXcJ twX9z5UIcDYtN/GRxOZNmt+6RvpzGowDYbA+W+9JdfIaNYYaQ++U9p35efDY3r7M wV9XPzJZ2p+kglh7kps7ZKtxRxAxbK8m5EGnAMsvxZdmRIxBscO+NQTUokIirjfZ nRb+VlzmTxwUAqZVSsF2VBAQZOBBGW5owPJUPIe7OxOvJkwTpI5w3SKrdHrCy8WM 74G8LIqUZQPKC2zH1Nv9HUZ+O9TF7sve+o6BJ+h0JpcBchAoGBg= =MzhH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop
