Don't forget we are talking about the Crimes act, and in the very first section it says ignoragance is not a defence. For example, if I murder someone but don't look, I can't say that I'm innocent because I didn't see myself committing the crime. I'm clearly giving a warning via the SMTP greeting line. A user claiming they have not seen it is not a defence. -----Original Message----- From: Juha Saarinen [mailto:juha(a)saarinen.org] Sent: 8 July 2003 3:29 p.m. To: Simon Byrnand Cc: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz Subject: RE: [nznog] Crimes Amendment Bill No 6 Now Law On Tue, 8 Jul 2003, Simon Byrnand wrote:

Well... you need to have some sort of action from the EULA reader for it to become valid (ie. a click on the button that says "Yes, please, here's my soul and my firstborn").
Which "users" are you refering to anyway ? User X out on the internet sending you a message is usually going to go via their ISP's outgoing mailserver, so they're not connecting to your mailserver anyway. Only their ISP's mailserver will be connecting to your mailserver and "seeing" the HELO response.
Very true. That would invalidate the whole thing, if you spammed via your ISP's mail server. No way to see the greeting. -- Juha Saarinen _______________________________________________ Nznog mailing list Nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz http://list.waikato.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/nznog
