	Oh I know this has been one reason people have stated in the past, but that's
part of what makes me mad.  It's like saying "We know we and probably everybody
else is too stupid to use email, so let's combat that with legal crap."  Gah!  I
mean, that may not bother most people, but I want a way for MY email to remain
unencumbered.  I mean, I feel like saying "Keep your laws off my email server!"
or something equally rediculous.

I don't much care WHY people feel the need to do this.  I don't claim to
understand people.  I simply want a way to keep this crap away from me.
