Unauthorized use of mail relays is already preventable. Why legislate against something (which merely establishes a penalty for it) when you can stop it from happening, cold. Just install qmail -- by default it prevents relaying. http://www.qmail.org. [ For the sake of truth, I run that site, and I also provide commercial support for qmail -- but I do both of those because qmail helps stop spam. ] -- -russ <nelson () crynwr com> http://www.crynwr.com/~nelson Crynwr Software sells network driver support | PGP ok 521 Pleasant Valley Rd. | +1 315 268 1925 voice | Peace, Justice, Freedom: Potsdam, NY 13676-3213 | +1 315 268 9201 FAX | pick two (only mostly true) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
