Add a certain header line to every outgoing email (eg. X-Anti-Backscatter: xxxx). Then if a bounce (coming from a mailer daemon) has not included our "X-Anti-Backscatter: xxxx" header line, then it is obviously not a legitimate (bounce) email, so can be dropped, marked, whatever.

Then one could see the difference between the two versions, as well as the intelligence in your framework present in the Community edition too. If you already have this chart then shame on me. Just an idea.

What i am trying to say is that MPP Community is nothing like our commercial product. There are many thousands of users of MPP Community so this is a message for them to take a look at our commercial product, it has evolved far past what it is available in this product.

I mean, any skilled unix admin can set up these components in few minutes without the overhead of MPP. What added quality does MPP have to be worth to install? I think you are just saying that MPP Free Edition is <a href="http://www.messagepartners.com/2008/03/04/mpp-community-edition/" rel="nofollow">a bunch of junk</a>.

Google just got farther than anyone else selling keywords, because their formula happened to work. But money corrupts. When it corrupts to the point that typing keywords into Google no longer returns relevant results, then Google as we know it will cease to exist, and someone with a better idea will take over the search industry. Who ruled the search scene before Google? Anyone remember? And what happened? Told ya! History will likely repeat itself.

Your traffic probably is not "good" customer or potential customer traffic but auto-surfing click-bots that are actually visiting you! These click-bots have become very sophisticated and can use many methods to deter being detected for fraud like random timing of click and delays, multiple request headers from faked browsers, mutli-ip addresses from compromized PC and others. These tricks make it near impossible to identify specifically them as fraud and you'll pay and pay for what your think is traffic when it is just some criminal who is using a good honest business to hide behind.
