Chuck - while I will not argue about *WHY* a business chose to take an action 
- in this case port 25 blocking - I take great offense to the term 
"rag-heads."  3 letter agencies and all can be fine for a conversation, I may 
not agree - but I don't have to agree anyway. Please, let's try and keep and 
stereotypes out of it. I can understand posting something in the heat of the 
moment, and am not trying to be PC.
