Could everyone please help me test the new email server?

It is very aggressive with regard to rejecting spam, and I am a bit worried
that it will prevent valid emails from getting through. This server is
designed to instantly reject email while the sending server is still
connected and send back a message as to why it was rejected so that a
legitimate sending user at least knows that the message was not delivered.
What it does NOT do, is send me a copy of rejected emails, the result being
that I don't have to look through the several thousand (a day) junk emails I
get to try to figure out if there are any false positives from the spam
filter.

If you have not already done so, and it is still in September of 2006, would
you please send an email to:

jamesnewton@massmind.org

With tanstaafl in the subject.

Or just click here:

mailto:jamesnewton@massmind.org?subject=tanstaafl_test

You can use any subject and text, but please include tanstaafl so I can know
why I got the email. (tanstaafl = there aint no such thing as a free lunch).


I will respond within a day to let you know I received the email.

NOW: The important part: If you don't get a reply or you DO get a bounce,
please let me know what you think of it by forwarding that to me at
jamesnewton@piclist.com which is on the old server.

I REALLY appreciate the help in testing this new system. A number of
"experts" are telling me it will not work and I will loose a lot of email
from people who are legit, but I don't see why.
