RE: [Asrg] Please remove tim(_at_)mailkey(_dot_)com from the mailing list

No, not THE flaw, A flaw.

Remember the challenge/response anti-spam house that decided
to spam everyone they had sent a challenge to with a marketting
message?


I just got two of these.

1. I never sent mail to tim(_at_)mailkey(_dot_)com(_dot_)  I've gone through 
my 
outbox.  As far as I can tell this is a reply to mail he received 
from the list, incorrectly sent to the From instead of the 
Return-Path.  I'd report the bug to the mailkey folks, but in order 
to contact them they force me to use their system.  Why should I 
waste my time any more than I already have?  Welcome to the 
fundmental flaw in challenge-response--it assumes that the sender 
cares more about sending than the receiver cares about receiving.
