Subject: Re: [Asrg] Content versus conversation
The problem with spam is not the content, but the conversation.
No, I disagree. I perceive the content to be spam, much
in thw way tools like SpamAssasin and Vipul's Razor judge
the *content* in an automated fashion. Or, an ISP
client. They could care less about the "envelope".
They care that the content is objectionable.
Based upon the track records of senders of objectionable
material, I can decide to all out ban their connections
to my mail server. After I get a message from a client
complaining about content.
It's just like junk snail mail - you don't always throw it
away just because the envelope looks like the mail inside
may be an unrequested commercial advertisement.
