Unfortunately, our service is going to have to be opt-in, so there is a much
greater liklihood of the scenario we describe.
Also, with anti-virus, we can't use your logic. If a customer has opted out of
viruses, we HAVE to stop them; we can't let them pass because another recipient
of the same message doesn't want his mail scanned. You see our dilemma...? :)
Thanks.
