I'm sure I've made this point before:
the assertion that
"...there is no opportunity for software
     control of spam in UA.o ,  because the software is
     under the control of the originator. "
is too strong.

In the (not inconsiderable) case of a Webmail system  there is
a clear opportunity for spam control. The software is NOT under the control
of the originator. Providers of (free) webmail systems should have their
attention drawn to their responsibilities in this area.

This assertion should be qualified. Perhaps "Except in cases where the UA
software is not under control of the originator (for instance in the case
of "Webmail" systems) ... In which case, a responsibility for spam control
(on egress) rests with the provider."
