 The host of this list has
 indicated this discussion
 is off-topic. Unless a less
 anal-retentive interpretation
 of "technical and engineering"
 is encouraged I'd say the 
 following article by Nathan
 Stratton is probably to be
 regarded as "off-topic".

Nathan raves:
Are you on a C64, or do you just like 40 char on a line? Why don't
you do us all a favor and upgrade. It will not bother me anymore
because you made it to MY blackhole list in procmail.

I still do not understand how you can say that as a ISP I dont 
have the right to deny my users whatever I want. If I want to be a 
ISP and not provide access to UUNet I can do that. I may not keep 
a lot of customers, but I am not infringing on anyones rights. 
They can always get a new provider. If your website is associated 
with spam and you get blackholed then you can deal with the 
problem or not reach users who chose to stay with ISPs that 
subscribe to the RBL.
