Guess how internet routers solve packet overload - they throw random packets away. > I run a business, I can't afford to lose a client, even a potential one, > because the mail got rejected, or the phone wasn't answered, etc. I > know some of them won't retry, I know regular clients who won't retry, I > usually don't retry... There is a difference between throwing email away without the consent/permission of its owner and throwing it away with the consent. The people to whom I provide email are more than happy to lose the odd real email so they don't have to read through all the spam and are far more productive as a result. Also your client case is a bit spurious, most people whitelist clients. Alan
