Worth reading. Seems reasonably ept from an technical perspective.
The want open relays ?!?!?
Remark about (amongst others) SPF:
`` Many have described the email authentication systems as promoting a
policy that says email is "spam unless proven otherwise." ''
They seem to forget many of their problems can be circumvented by:
- using a real, existing sender address
- using a properly configured server, including but not limited to
its DNS records (both forward and reverse) and HELO
- using plain text messages, not html and no web bugs, beacons or
whatever it is called. No exe files and such more
I am not impressed.
