I agree that challenge/response systems are a major pain, but the description
of fairuce also mentions a reputation database. I've heard of other tools
working on the same concept.
Do people think that this is a legitimate concept? Could a reputation system
turn out to be similar to the RBL system? I haven't done a lot of research
on this yet. I'm just curious if anyone has formed any opinions yet. :)
If this is way off topic for exim-users, feel free to tell me to shutup. :p
