Not yet, over the years I've worked with this ISP we have gone from a 
single install of Sendmail to two gateways, one minor gateway, three pop 
toasters, and a auth DB backend. We had 10% spam in 2000, we now have 
24% delivery and I don't count the 120k connections I turn away at 
connection time.

I hate spam. I prefer the 'big hammer' approach followed by 'selective 
stomping' for the small scurrying offenders.

But, lazylaw is next, followed by selective greylisting where needed. It 
all will be determined by who complains and how loudly.

Thanks,

Three years now I've asked Google why they don't have a
logo change for Memorial Day. Why do they choose to do logos
for other non-international holidays, but nothing for
Veterans?

Maybe they forgot who made that choice possible.
