If your e-mail is being rejected, it is being rejected at the ISP lever
(Earthlink). I'll check out the site you recommended.

Thanks,
Parry

There are more scary stories at 

http://stupidsecurity.com

Some people think publishing stories like these are wrong ... in
security, it is far better to learn from other people's mistakes than
your own.

btw, franck(_at_)sopac(_dot_)org and parry(_at_)aftab(_dot_)com won't receive 
this ... they
are rejecting my emails as "spam" purely based on my IP address, which
is pseudo dynamic, via a residential  ADSL connection.

The attached note certainly gave me that sort of feeling...
