[tom.dixon]

Hi Bill
Thanks for your comments. I have taken them on board and cured the
problem, I uninstalled the program. Thanks for polite delivery....I got
some real shocking emails.....some evening suggesting my breeding
history lol....However if that is all they have to bitch about then life
for them must be good...

Tom- MY OPINION- White lists cause more trouble than they solve.
If someone that I have not pre-approved (because I have not heard from
them 
before) wants to send me a message- how do they do it? They can't, under

the White list system. I have had the answer that the rejects are stored

for periodic review- This is idiotic, because it just puts the review
time 
off for a while; I still have to look for possible goodies. In addition,
it 
is an insult to valid potential correspondents, or, at least, delays
their 
contact.
I know that SPAM is a real, BAD problem, but the "White List", like the 
"Black List" implemented by automated or semi-automated means, are also
BAD.
Bill
