That's certainly been mentioned a lot of times and is certainly consistent
with what p=reject says it means.


The problem is pragmatic: there are a lot of people who use Yahoo's
mail, very few of them understand the technology very well, and they'd
see this as just another baffling thing that happens on their
computers.  I would like to encourage all of the Yahoo users on my
lists to find a better provider, but that will take years.  In the
meantime, the church has a lot of meetings to organize.  It's a market
power problem, not a technical problem.
