The best thing about destination filtering like this is that you get to pay to download the SPAM before you throw it away, so it can count against your 200 hours (~8 days) before message units kick in on ISDN links from non-flat-rate providers like Pac Bell and US West (among others). Oh wait, that's not why destination filtering is a *good* idea, that's why it's a *stupid* idea... Anyone with an ISDN link that they've had to pay message units on this month? If so, you should bill the SPAM'mers for the difference. Terry Lambert terry@lambert.org --- Any opinions in this posting are my own and not those of my present or previous employers.
