RFC2317.
that'd still involve the ISP inserting stuff in their nameservers.

when "isp admins" are substituted by "drones working out of templates / web forms" ...

ps - there's of course the rather umm... interesting content below ;)

Maybe more people should do what AOL says they may do, then.
I'm all in favor of it - but I'm still reluctant to dump legit mail that'll get dumped if I do this. I'll have to be pushed a lot farther before I start doing this (and with spam levels increasing the way they are ...).
