Re: [At-Large] A million domains taken down by email checks
hi Roberto, one advantage of using an IMAP client rather than POP is that the spam filtering is done at the server end. so only the filtered mail travels across the wire to your client when you’re on the road. i’m with John L. on the public WHOIS records and spam. info for this haven2.com domain is out there for all to see and spam isn’t really an issue these days what with all the filtering options. i’m down to about 500 spam messages a week and the filters are wicked accurate. mikey

One of the problems that the spam filters does not solve, unless there is a way that I am ignorant about, is that even if the incoming messages are put in a separate folder, I still have to pay for the connection time while the junk is downloaded. This is not a problem when I am at home, or when I have a WiFi connection, but is a problem indeed when I am travelling to places with slow or/and expensive connection. Cheers, R.

Registrants pay money for a service, yet is required to go through EVERYONE having access to the records. So now, the domain owner is spammed by EVERYONE because they can.
Aw, come on. I have put real e-mail addresses on all my domains for over 20 years, and those addresses remain completely usable. Feel free to write to me at my WHOIS contact addresses if you don't believe me.
I certainly believe that your mail provider has crummy spam filters, but that's not an argument for anything other than finding a more competent mail provider.

And as you run a business, and it is not an organization dedicated to an endangered population or a politically unpopular [population, idea, advocacy] that is as it should be. avri
