He's got a post over at:
http://www.webmaster-affiliates.net/read_reviews_aff_prog.php?affid=7
endorsing a service, 1automationwiz, which doesn't exactly have the best track record, based on NANAS postings:

I'd be very surprised if his service provider wasn't listed in every DNS blacklist that lists spam sources. Given that, even if YipMan is sending legitimate opt-in mail, he's likely to be tagged for sending from a service provider with a fairly hefty history.
Of course, it's also quite possible he's a blatant spammer. He's not provided any of his mails that were tagged to convince us one way or the other.

While I understand that you have the best intentions, your contribution to
the <A HREF="http://www.spamassassin.org/";>http://www.spamassassin.org/</A>
project has gone very wrong.
Your concept is excellent in theory, but your filtering requirements are ridiculous!
Your service is costing legitimate business MILLIONS of dollars a month in lost
sales due to their customers and optin subscribers NOT getting their mail
because you guys clearly don't have a clue as to what spam is and what is it is
not.
Perhaps you have a hidden agenda, like stopping legal commerce on the net,
I don't know. It's the only possible explanation that makes sense
considering the things that you filter for.
Legitimate business does use the net you know and filtering out words
like:
credit card, for your, thank you, what you, with your, you for, your
business, your credit, your order, etc. SPAM: and marking it as spam is
ludicrous!
Just remember what happened to the guy that used to run spamcop.com....
You can't justify what you are doing.
