had both lines: Author: ... WWW: .... So standardize on that, and move them to the end of the file when necessary. Also fix some more whitespace, and remove more "signature tags" of varying forms, like -- name, etc. s/AUTHOR/Author/ A few other various formatting issues

Tagged Message Delivery Agent (TMDA) is designed to significantly reduce the
|
|
amount of spam (junk-mail) you receive. TMDA strives to be more effective,
|
|
yet less time-consuming than traditional spam filters.
|
|
|
|
The technical countermeasures used by TMDA to thwart spam include:
|
|
- whitelists: accept mail from known, trusted senders
|
|
- blacklists: refuse mail from undesired senders
|
|
- challenge/response: allows unknown senders which aren't on the whitelist or
|
|
blacklist the chance to confirm that their message is legitimate (non-spam)
|
|
- tagged addresses: special-purpose e-mail addresses such as time-dependent
|
|
addresses, or addresses which only accept certain kinds of communication.
|
|
These increase the transparency of TMDA for unknown senders by allowing them
|
|
to safely circumvent the challenge/response system.
|
|
|
|
TMDA can also be used as a general purpose local mail delivery agent to filter,
|
|
sort, deliver and dispose of incoming mail.
