If you don't have user level authentication, you MUST have IP address
blocking, or you create a haven for spammers.
I see user level authentication as being a MUST for any next generation
mail system. (If all MTAs/MUAs supported SMTP authentication now, life
would be a lot easier for everyone)
Hear hear!
If there is a way to securely automatic this? without signficantly delaying
or obstructing the delivery of mail? I mean with the "new system" <g>
somehow make it part of the connection process that gives them information
about automatically signing up? Does it make sense?
