Kath, the federal government here made it "law"... it gets ignored too much, and the shit hits the fan. Even government workers are smart enough to save their own asses, at least most of the time.

A spam filter program is like putting blinkers on people to walk them through the ghetto. It doesn't make the ghetto a better place to be, but it means they don't notice.

Filters require that you have a clue how to set them up. I can, you can, but can msn newbie of the week do it? Could your parents do it? I have tons of filters in my mail program already, but it is sort of hard to filter shit out when they keep changing to "FR*E*E* I*N&K *F*R*EE" as a subject link, ya know?

Nope, filtering spam at the reception level doesn't eliminate the network congestion, the wasted resources, and the wasted time.
