Hi all,
Today I recieved another mail with the subject: "Delivery Notification:
Delivery has failed". It seems that there a number of ppl on this list
who think that they can look at the from address and see if someone is a
spammer or not. I thougth that everybody on his list should know better
than that.
I am not a spammer!! I use this mail address only on FreeBSD list.
Spammers can and do harvest it from the web because the contence of the
lists are published on to the web.

Diagnostic-code: smtp;550 5.7.1 <freebsd at akruijff.dds.nl>... We do not

If you want to block mail from spammers please use spammassassin or a IP
based system, but don't go on the FROM address. That is so easy to fake.
