2) Your reply to Dave's post is not useful. It's not even useful if you consider it pure hyperbole for effect. There are many ways to reduce spam, the "single most effective" does not stop even 50%.Actually, that's not true. I don't want to get into an argument about "single most effective," but I can guarantee that using a good reputation service will block more than 50% of the incoming spam to your network. The leading ones normally hit the 80% range.
A good reputation service is not using a single criteria. But you didn't want to get into an argument, and I agree it's not worth arguing over. The point was, trying to imply that not using DUL would result in "quadrillions" more spam is not useful. And I stand behind that. -- TTFN, patrick
