# Subject: [ANNOUNCE] TMDA 0.37 - A SPAM reduction system for qmail
#
#
# Since I last announced it here, I've improved my Tagged Message
# Delivery Agent, making it much easier for legitimate, but unknown
# senders to get mail through to you. It now validates these messages
# using a simple challenge/response process similar to SpamCop's.
#
# * TMDA Summary:
#
# TMDA is an OSI certified Python application for qmail systems
# designed to significantly reduce the amount of SPAM/UCE you receive.
# A "whitelist" filter allows known contacts immediately into your
# mailbox, and all others must reply to a simple confirmation to
# validate their message. Once they respond to the confirmation,
# their original message is delivered to you.
#
# For more information including download locations and installation
# instructions, visit the TMDA homepage:
#
# <URL:http://tmda.sourceforge.net/>
#
# Enjoy,
