I never saw the day that the EFF ever had a clue on spam. And plenty of
times when they've simply misrepresented a whole lot of facts to produce
quite laughable opinions on the subject of spam.
And I've seen more than one day when moveon.org has run badly managed
enough mailing lists that they're indistinguishable from spam to our
filters. Like the time they managed to email one of our role accounts -
which is read by staffers based in Hong Kong - inviting us to participate
in a rally / march outside the white house. Maybe they also intended to buy
HKG-IAD tickets and reserve hotel acco for a dozen people..

Feel free to comment further there - and take this off exim-users. Even
with that exim acl in there, it isnt any more on topic than the rest of
your usual drivel.
