Hi,


I would like to get comments on the following anti-spam method
draft:

http://shum.huji.ac.il/~agay/blog.cgi?asc

This is an "automatized" version of the mail cookies method invented
and published by David Wheeler in 2004. The manual version was not
convenient to use and this is probably why it didn't became popular.

I think the basic idea was excellent and making it user friendly will
create a powerful anti-spam tool which doesn't require extraordinary
computing resources nor access to large scale mailing data. It would
allow the open source community to compete with commercial webmails.

Do you think it will work ok? Does Pine needs such a system?


Thanks

Abraham Agay
