    Nope. They could sue for copyright infringement because if they don't agreee with the GPL they have to get special permission to use the software. Without the GPL, they have no rights to the software and hence are breaking copyright. You cann't bring a GPL-lawsuit as it is not a law.

    i posted this on the BBA forums as well.
    Many companys who get upwards of gigabytes of pure spam daily. To them, post-reciept filtering is not an option. The spammers have wasted their bandwidth to delever their spew. All that spamassassin does is stop the recepient from reading it. The only option to save bandwidth is to DENY suspected ip addresses from DELEVERING IN THE FIRST PLACE. Spamassassin can be used as a second-level line of defence for everything else that gets past trusted lists (spamcop, spamhaus etc). If you paid per megabyte you would be doing this too.
