I get my mail via popclient and send it not from the same machine via
sendmail.
This machine is connected via dynamic ip and ppp.
So i fear it would be a problem for me to have to be subscripted with
the sending address.

Is there really no inteligent way to solve this problem? 
Perhaps something like a password authentification for subscriptions?

I hate the spams very much. I have to look at all of these mails
as i can not differ between important and not important mails without.
And i think if NetBSD is not able to protect against such things
whoever is then able to do it?
ciao
Carsten
