Sorry for the misunderstanding, lordSauron. I was referring to the guy with the spam filter ( mr-...@uo... )--I know you're not the spam guy nor should you be removed from the list. Please accept my apologies (same for Mr. McFarlane). I was tired when I wrote it and should've proofed it better before clicking Send. Continuing... The user that everyone's complaining about uses a challenge-response spam filtering system similar to TMDA ( tmda.sf.net ) and ASK ( a-s-k.sf.net ), except his may be a proprietary one provided by... his provider. When properly configured, they work quit well. However, if the user doesn't configure them correctly, as in this person's case, it can create problems. -----Original Message----- From: lordSauron [mailto:lor...@gm...] Sent: Monday, July 18, 2005 9:30 PM To: Tom Smith Subject: Re: Re: [Dev-C++] .net langwijs On 7/18/05, Tom Smith <ml...@hp...> wrote: > There's a particular user (Josh McFarlane) who uses a challenge-response > spam filtering system.

Or the guy with the spam filter? just to clear something up, I'm lor...@gm..., *not* the spam guy - i really hope you were mistaken or that you're thinking of the spam guy... aren't you? |
