In other words, he's saying that he wants Google to reject the mail before it gets to his spam folder. He's not complaining about the efficacy of their spam filters, but is instead suggesting that Google should find a way to reject it before it even hits his spam folder.
This is the kind of contest that no participant who's qualified should ever compete in. It's the same kind of crap as the 'design our new logo' contests or 'shoot your own commercial (for us)' contests.
I actually got disqualified from a Science Olympiad event when I was in eighth grade, and I'm still bitter.
The contest? Hot house. The goal, using the lightest mass fully enclosed "house" possible, try and insulate 100mL beaker of 100 water. Basically, the judges would fill a beaker for you, you'd place it in your device, and they'd take the temperature after 30 minutes.
The scoring was something like: deltaT*mass, and lowest score wins. deltaT measured in degrees Celsius and mass in grams. It didn't take me long to realize that the scoring wasn't geared toward the best insulator, but actually toward the lightest material.
So building a small rectangular house out of paper led to a design with a high loss of temperature, but a really low score. I thought it was brilliant. The judges thought it was cheating.
I still don't think I should have been disqualified. I got my first place my other event, but strangely, I don't remember what that was.
As part of my undergraduate curriculum at WMU, we had to work in small groups on a reasonable size project to complete the baccalaureate writing requirement. Although most projects were for other departments in the University, my group and some others worked for outside nonprofit groups. In particular, my group worked on a database system for the Kiwanis Club of Kalamazoo. Perhaps you could contact your local university and see if they don't have a similar course? Given the right students you could have yourself a great program.

Google's language is called Go! (with an exclamation mark.)
So, do we get to pronounce it "Go Bang"?

So, even if XFree86 was unintentional, what content do they think they're protecting us from?
I like to jump out of airplanes.
You want to rely on technology that's not electronic, it's not a bad way to spend a weekend, er, every weekend.
I get sick? So people install video cameras in my house?
Spring's coming, thank God I don't get hayfever. Oh, damn, I do. Guess I'd better get used to masturbating in front of a webcam.
