[Hidden-tech] List changes (from Jan Werner)

[hidden-discuss at lists.hidden-tech.net]

Jan,

I completely get your frustration. However, as the months go by, more 
and more emailservers out in the world will begin using SPF to block spam.

At the moment you're safe from this problem because your DNS doesn't 
have an SPF record, so no one would block your emails, even if it came 
from a spam center in China. In other words, your DNS does not define 
which email servers are authorized to send email on your behalf. That's 
why your emails through this list have not wound up in anyone's junk folder.

I guarantee that someday, if you continue to use the jwdp.com domain 
name, you will have an SPF record set up for you, as well as DKIM.It's a 
bona fide thing, and it's what's making email better.

On another note, I don't look at the sender on this list to decide 
whether or not to read a post. I look at the subject.

Thanks,

Mik
