Dear Group Member,
Can anyone explian me the clear definition of SPAM and HAM
regards
How about sending "450 Please Try later" to ever mail with an inline
image and then somehow verify if it really comes back. (Obviously not my
original idea :-) )
How many spams would really comeback. max 20% .. those which are routed
thru zombies
Thanks
Ram
