The Cool Breeze

I am an email user and a email provider, and I hate spam.  No, worse than that, I lothe SPAM…for many reasons.  There are many reasons, most that have been said before, and a lot from an ISP poitn of view (did you know spammers, hijack legit servers to send spam).  One of the “tools” that people have turned to is Challenge/Response system (where you, the sender, get an email that you have to “approve” that you sent it).  I hate these systems, and just for the record, I will NEVER respond to them.  It’s annoying and frustrating to have to send these back, and I have noticed that I have to “re-send” to verify, and sometimes the user doesn’t get them anyway.  *sigh*
