There are some sites like that, and I can assure you there are forwarders 
I have to deal with that try to filter but do a really lousy job of it. 
They're the ones whose AR would be particularly useful.  I'm not being 
hypothetical here, I'm dealing with this kind of mail every day.

Indeed.  So I presume you agree it is a waste of time to try to cripple 
specs to remove the parts that the inept might misuse?  They'll misuse 
everything.

R's,
