Well, any evaluation of Vixie performance is bound to get around to spam
sooner or later. But, I notice that you aren't saying MAPS did the right
thing, or that the incident ought to make us want to trust MAPS... Just
out taking shots, eh? Well, its a good day for it, I guess.
BTW, Steve, have you learned how to read mail headers yet? Do you still
need me to tell you how to block a mail server? I have a nice little
train of emails where Sobol can't figure out how to read SMTP headers to
block our servers, and winds up insisting "I can read headers! I can read
headers!"--it'll go up on www.iadl.org this week sometime.
This is going up too:

"Or by misleading the innocent."
