| Re: Killing a fly with a jackhammer said by DonLibes : How does Comcast's proposed implementation only target subscribers sending out spam? I need to use my employer's SMTP server (Comcast's SMTP server has too many limits on outbound mail plus it's much lower reliability, has long latency, etc.) So would I still be able to use my employer's SMTP server? How would Comcast differentiate?
I presume they would go by Spamhaus etc. reports and/or abuse complaints, and just block those who are known to have sent large amounts of spam.
Sending legitimate mail to a legitimate 3rd-party server shouldn't get their attention. -- Robert Tappan Morris, Jr., got six months in jail for crashing 10% of the computers that Bill Gates made $100 million crashing last weekend. |
