It's a *BULK* indicator. e.g. have lots of people seen this message?that is simply not true and defeats the purposeI disagree. That description of DCC seems very accurate to me. See http://www.rhyolite.com/dcc/ and particularly statements like: - DCC does not "list" domain names or IP addresses, but detects bulk mail messages. - If DCC users want to receive your bulk mail, they must whitelist it by adding your IP address, SMTP envelope sender, RFC 2369 <http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2369.txt> SMTP List-* headers, or other characteristics of your mail to their whiteclnt files <http://www.dcc-servers.net/dcc/dcc-tree/homedir/whiteclnt>. Why are you saying it's not true?
because i can't find any sense in give bulk mail just because it is bulk mail - indepdendent of subscribed, double-optin and what not - a penalty
however, the real problem of all the hashing services is the way how personalized parts get stripped and what part of a message is taken for the hash (without that it can not work at all) and i saw *for sure* single mails written by a human and not a bluk mail as false positive
the other problem is how people report their mail - there are plenty of idiots which confuse the "delete" and "report as spam" option regulary
