| Trouble is, the charter applies to humans. Viruses don't read the charter

| say anything about what will happen to automated attacks.
As I showed earlier, the charter does not allow for such mail at all.
The acceptable content part is very clear.
| Given that AV vendors tend to charge per user for their mail scanning

owners
| (who graciously host the list for free) to implement scanning anyway.
There are quite a few free (and even GPL) fine scanning products out
there. A google search should help out with finding some.
Thank you for your civil reply, it is refreshing.
Gadi.
