BBBZZZTTT yourself. Blocking email is an interception under the ECPA (18 USC 2511 et al). It has been reported here previously that 1) The ECPA was amended to apply to email. 2) A US attorney has stated that ISP's who define their service to include mail filtering for their customers implicitly have their customers permission to do so, as required under the ECPA. Those who don't have permission would be in violation of the ECPA were they to block email. So as twisted as his writing and perhaps his thinking is, Bob is essentially right on that. You, as usual, are unequivocalably wrong. Perhaps you also can quit wasting our bandwidth. --Dean
*BBBZZZZTTT*, wrong answer,thank you for playing. Prevention of email delivery is not interception. Nor is there reading of your private email, or any of the other horrible crimes against humanity that so many envision. Unlike the USPS, if you don't like your ISP's email policies, you are free to go elsewhere. Your argument has no basis in legal, moral or ethical theory.
