Do I detect Microsoft Punctuation in there? :)

There's a link to a tarball on the website. That solution involves
setting up separate inbound and outbound mail servers, possibly on the
same computer.

The general solution for sanitizing every message passing through the
server has not yet been successfully addressed that I am aware of -
anybody care to remind me of something I'm missing? (Note that I'm
sendmail-centric - other mail server packages may make this trivially
easy.)

  In 1998 more than three times as many people in the US were killed
  by incompetent physicians than were killed by handguns, yet the
  President of the A.M.A. is adopting "gun safety" as his platform.
