"The marketoids won't cooperate" has never, ever been a valid argument for anything. These people are the same people who yelled at me because I wouldn't make a particular web site compatible with IE 2.0 a couple years ago, even though IE 2.0 and 3.0 are very badly broken in some ways (yes, the wonderful person who argued with me on this was a particularly clueless marketoid, but there are a lot of them out there that aren't any better). And I sure wouldn't expect the marketoids to be able to write perl, but something like what Mr. Brown describes would be trivial for someone who actually programs in perl, and it could be deployed on a corporate mail server as a backend filter of some sort. -- Tired of Earthlink?
