Here's an informative article from tomorrow's New York Times: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/02/05/technology/05AOL.html And here's an interesting quote from there: > Users will be able to specify that unpaid messages from a particular > person or company should never be treated as spam, as they can do > now. That might be a saving grace for list mail. But users will in effect have to actively opt out of the new no-more-mass-whitelist AOL policy. This may be a significant technical barrier for a number of unsophisticated users, no matter how easy it may seem for us technical wizards. Also: while users might be allowed to whitelist addresses that appear in the From: field, will they be allowed to do so for the Sender: field, which is the only way to identify a list's address in incoming mail? If not, then we Listserv people are still up a creek. - Roger Burns Manager of CFS lists based at ICORS.org, Charitable Listserv sponsored by L-Soft
