Re: Seems like a one man campaign on the Comcast forum

That's great, except the services being mentioned do not have a reputation for being used by spammers. It's why I chose the one I did. In fact, the one I use does not provide the ability to send email from one person to another through its services (i.e., no open relay). It simply collects my email and forwards it where I tell it to.

Anyway, have you gotten any less spam over the past couple days as a result of this? I see a lot of messages on the forums from people who claim to be getting substantially more all of a sudden.

I think a solution tailored to actually fix the problem would be most appreciated. Burning down the house to get rid of the ants doesn't make sense.

Nice Try5

The point I was trying to get across was just that. Comcast, in their infinite wisdom, has started using a technology that obviously isn't ready for prime time. As a result, legitimate business will suffer. I still don't think they should filter at all though.

See my response above. I don't use comcast email.
