Well this is certainly full of crap. Didn't John Dillinger rob banks? How do we know that Goodmail won't rob banks too?
You have that ass backwards, Larry. The question isn't whether Goodmail will rob banks. The question is whether Goodmail will accidentally provide service to somebody they shouldn't have. And the correct answer is: They *will* screw up. Choicepoint screwed up. A certain CA screwed up and issued bogus Microsoft certs and resulted in a CERT advisory. It's only a matter of time before Goodmail gets hoodwinked and blesses somebody they shouldn't have.
