Re: [amibroker] Another Hard Bounce

["Edward Pottasch" <empottasch@xxxxxxxxx>]

hi Yuki,

so then turning the spam filter off indeed solves the problem. I did not see any use for it since almost all my incoming messages were labelled SPAM.  Turning it off seems to work for me although McAfee gives a message that my system is now "unprotected" .... 

regards, Ed

  There are some anti-SPAM programs that try to combat SPAM by bouncing
  messages. This is a really *bad* idea of course, because almost all
  return email addresses on SPAM are forgeries. Bouncing simply clogs
  up the network with packets that mean nothing to anyone.

  Perhaps this is what Yahoo! means by "hard bounce". I'm not sure.
