Then maybe we should bring market pressure to bear on them. Personally, I 
run Exim and ClamAV and don't have that problem. If they're going to spam 
- and I'm sorry, we're not talking about DSNs here, we're talking about 
obnoxious AV vendors telling us how great their product is - then either 
we should try to convince people to stop using those vendors or at least 
beat up on the vendors to fix their brokenness. Is anyone here a customer 
of any of the vendors that play this game?
