And how do people get validate to get access to it securely? Because if
it's open, you just created a massive, pre-authorized and valid list of
addresses to suck off and spam. So you have to make it available to
almost anyone (because almost anyone can be a home business with an
e-marketing newsletter), but protect it from spammers who'll happily
agree to whatever you say, suck as many addresses as they can, and skip
off into the night...
Use a database of SHA1 hashes. You can even maintain exceptions in that
list (again, as sha1 hashes).
