This article is almost a year old (dec 2002)! An eternity in net time. AAMOF, Deersoft was already being acquired by Network Associates by that time. Wow, I saw very little fact in the article anyway. Most of the article was laughably inaccurate. But just to be sure, I asked every employee at my place of employment (50+) to tell me if they were upset that I was tagging 'suspected' spam by changing the subject. Not a single person was concerned and asked if I could lower the score at which I shunt the spam to ground (err.. forward email to /dev/null).
