It's very hard these days to guarantee that email will never be deliberately blocked. It's unfortunate that things have come to this. >Couldn't you make your RSS filtering layer part of Nojunk? That could >be more effective from your customers' point of view... This is technically very hard to do. What we have done instead is provided a mechanism where if you have a custom domain we can configure it such that no email, at any time, will ever be blocked at any our machines except via the user-controllable Nojunk system. However, this is not possible to do with username@rahul.net because all addreses of that form share this domain, so some mail filtering policies will apply to everybody uniformly. Having your own domain also allows many other interesting things, so you and others might seriously want to consider this. This would result in a change in your email address, but after that, you would never have to change it again. -- (Rahul Dhesi) a2i network support account <support@rahul.net>
