I think it is interesting that one of the reasons I installed the Benign program was to block read receipts and it turns out that the Msgtag program is sold by the same company, "ecosm.com". I am a user of this program as well and that's why I wanted something to block read receipts that I do not have an option of not replying too. They don't seem to make any mention of their affiliation with this product, I guess thay don't want you to know your receipts can easily be blocked with another one of their own products.

Actually there is very little affiliation.
MSGTAG has nothing to do with Firetrust, rather eCOSM are contracted to develop Benign.

It think it highlights more eCOSMs expertise and knowledge in email communications, and ability to develop useful applications.

I'd like to thank you for clearing up my confusion regarding the product being produced by the same people to actually combat their own product. Your explanation make a great deal of sense, as they do seem to have a great expertise in the e-mail area. I wish that they would take some more time to work on the Benign product. I know they are focusing on the Mailwasher program but it seems like they could make more money if they improve Benign to the point that all of the Mailwasher owners would find it irresistable to add it to their E-Mail security arsenal.

I've heard this one before.... Rolling Eyes Dunno what you plan to improve -- there's been so few complaints that there seems little reason to do anything. Wink

That's awfully presumptuous! What makes you think I hate you now ... or would hate you less? Take your pick..... Razz

Couldn't help myself when I found out she was of the female persuasion. Wink

Oh, and don't think of doing the proxy for me ... do it for your own good! Anti-SPAM customers will gravitate towards the solution with the fewest complications and a proxy helps get rid of some confusng complications.

Take B9 for example: Proxy. Few complaints. Need I say more? Wink
