As far as privacy concerns go, I have to agree that Earthlink's new policy kinda sucks. If they're going to force their users to send out only through their servers, then they should not have any privacy-compromising activities on those servers. However, privacy concerns aside (say Carnivore is shutdown next month), then is this really that bad? I run my own mailserver on a RTHM network, and for outgoing, I simply relay the email out to RTHM's mail server, which forwards it on to the world. No worries on my end and it works fine. KM |
