Still a bad idea, because now they automatically download web bugs.

Seems that most of the registrars are, despite DNSSEC support by 1/1/14 being a mandatory requirement of ICANN certification. Remains to be seen if ICANN bothers to crack down.

I didn't know about them. I figured they just did hosting. Also, I don't have a hosting account with them.

Speaking of anycast, how important is it if you have secondary DNS set up?

That bad? Why so down on them?

I'm using Namecheap as my registrar right now, and I'm thinking of using external DNS. Most are too expensive (UltraDNS and EasyDNS *shudder*) but DNSMadeEasy and...

Anybody try GoDaddy's Premium DNS?

It's certainly inexpensive, and they claim to offer both Anycast and DNSSEC. UltraDNS has DNSSEC but they're crazy expensive.

Further research indicates that filters are indeed executed after the quarantine. This implies, for example, that one cannot use a filter to whitelist an address you wish to bypass the quarantine, or...

It's the $35/year/domain DNS Hosting plan at EasyDNS? Still a tough sell compared to DNSMadeEasy's $29.99 for 10 domains that Cory references.

Unclear what Yahoo's value proposition is. I could get a Pobox Mailstore or Runbox Medium account for that. Then again, the average Yahoo user probably hasn't heard of either.

How did you find out about the bounces? It's not as if they can send you an email when DNS isn't working.

I looked at EasyDNS but they seem to want $15 per domain minimum, $35 per domain if you want...

DNS providers that support SPF (RFC 4408) records?

That is, the SPF (type 99) record. Namecheap currently handles my DNS, and they do not support it. They only support TXT records.

Pobox filters lower priority than the quarantine?

I tested a filter that discarded all email to my main address. The theory was that email would be blocked there while letting email to my aliases go right through. When sending to that address, email...

Luxsci premium spam filters can silently discard email though, and you can't turn it off, according Luxsci CS. There's no way to request quarantine rather than discard if the sending host is on their...

I was thinking the reports of Pobox unreliability were exaggerated. A couple of days in my trial and both their main and webmail sites appear to be down (as of now).

I agree, I surely wouldn't want them to handle email without first having a paid account.

I don't see anything calling itself "advanced" spam settings. There's one slider that selects among pre-arranged anti-spam features whose strength you don't control.

Does the Luxsci spam quarantine work like the Pobox one?

What happened to prompt the change? Luxsci is 2-3x more expensive than Pobox ($120-180/year vs $50/year).
