The ISPs will be a part of the solution. However, ISPs fall into two major
categories:
1) The ones that read the types of lists that you posted this to
2) The ones that have the problem.
You're preaching to the choir, Gadi - and if there's *one* thing I'd like a
solution for, it's *that* problem. How do you get the unwashed masses of ISPs
to join the choir so you can preach to them?
