Why not -- sounds cool to me. It is also very fast, and does not take much programming. It will stop all cleartext. Probably some pictures would get through, so it would not stop mailbombings, but a volume limitation per apparent user and apparent destination would stop mailbombings. A volume limitation sounds like a lot of work to program though. --------------------------------------------------------------------- We have the right to defend ourselves and our property, because of the kind of animals that we http://nw.com/jamesd/ are.
