While I agree with the goal here, I've been a bit disturbed by the undercurrent of antipathy toward 'clueless small ISPs'. I'm as small as ISPs come, and I've been outbound filtering against source addresses not in my address space at least since last April. How many of the clueful here can say that? Not many, I'll venture. For that matter, when did Alexis begin filtering outbound? I'd like the concept changed from 'forcing' to 'educating' and to have it done without disparagement for not already knowing. -- Dick St.Peters, Gatekeeper, Pearly Gateway, Ballston Spa, NY [email protected] Owner, NetHeaven 518-885-1295/800-910-6671 Albany/Saratoga/Glens Falls/North Creek/Lake Placid/Blue Mountain Lake First Internet service based in the 518 area code - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
