(pulls out the manual to an unused copy of windows) Whoa, I thought this was a printed copy of the EULA and mabey an install guide, but there's actualy insctruction for a few included programs! Amazing....
It always amazes me when some person asks me how to do 'foo' in program 'bar' and I figure it out with under 10 seconds of looking in menus. I've always thought most people don't do this because they are afraid of breaking something. I find it hard to belive that it just doesn't occor to people to poke around.
Yes, I got that, but his ISP could very likely be blocking telnet because wingates run on the same port and is often set up for open access by mistake and gets abused by spammers and script kiddies. If this person was running ssh on some weird high port where scanning programs couldn't find it, then they'd have a good reason to gripe.
You CAN'T derive physical speed from that. Bits travel at the speed of light, and bits per second is dependant on the lenght of time each bit lasts, in this case, a fraction of a nanosecond.
Well, first is the assumption that spamers almost always use a fake from and replyto address, and if they don't, it won't last long. Second, the whitlisting function can make the user aggree to some terms and have a visible threat of suit if the software is abused. It would easy to show that a spammer made effort to circumvent an antispam effort, and I would easily be able to sue. The other thing is I don't expect they'd bother with going to the effort confirming thier address. This setup will clearly need a lot of planning.
You aren't by any chance willing to release the source code for that front-end, are you?
If I set it up, I'll GPL it, but that's assuming I ever get around to it. My idea is only an idea at this point. This stuff shouldn't be too hard to do in perl...
My sugguestion only requires a valid from or reply-to address, and I did intend to use some sort of capatcha, but not an image based one. A text based capatcha would be easy, i.e. "parrots, bluejays, robins and sparrows are all what? (birds)" Additionaly once someone correctly responds to the capatcha they would be added to a whitelist. Optionaly a system like spam assassin could be used to decide in an email is "spammy" enough to bother requiring a capatcha response.
DSL/Cable Lines are not put in DULs because you gotta give out your address to get the line, and they take a while to get set up. They are used for spam much less often.

The SAT does allow the TI-89, it's the 92+ they don't like.

That can be a problem... KDE has a thing that lets you select from previous clipboard contents which you'd have to use.
Stick this in your boot script after creating an empty
What really annoys me is using a Windows box that doesn't auto copy-on-select and paste-on-middle-click.
`wget http://action.eff.org/tinseltown/tinsel.swf` works for me. REALLY slow (350bps) because of /. but it works...
Using public key auth for SSH solves both those problems.
PPP over SSH even.....
I goofed by a factor of 10. Also, they could easily send several bits at a time, like in multimode fiber.

Some idiot sniffing the password from a telnet session
SSH is encrypted, and can only be attacked via a man-in-the-middle attack, and any good ssh client will notice this and whine.
(B = bytes, b=bits)
625MB * 8b/1B = 5000 Mb / 401Mb/sec = 12.5 sec
401Mb/sec * 1048576Mb/1b = 420478976b/sec

Why on earth would you run telnet instead of SSH? Do you LIKE sending your password over the wire in the clear for any idiot to sniff?
That's why I leave flash off when I'm not viewing flash-based content. Gets rid of those annoying things which actualy work in konqueror.
Mozilla now has an option labeled "allow javascript to open unrequested windows" uncheck it and kill popups dead.

X-Loop mime headers, and resonable limits on the number of verification requests
I'd have to think about how to go about making things go smoothly when both sender and reciver addresses are protected.
Try Gotmail, the hotmail downloading/forwarding perl script, or pop3hot a shareware ($18) proggie that bridges pop3 to hotmail accounts.
Works fine in wine

That's why I'd have a web front end set up to deal with messages that haven't been confirmed by the sender.

Yes, but you must know who verio is....
