I think he said that he can show the token, but that it takes man
hours to accomplish.  The problem is that there are careless
people.  There was a man in the web forum that had a /paid/ mailing
list and people still reported it.

However, all his other problems have to do with 'content' filters.
If he understood about blocklists, then perhaps he would not have
so many spam problems himself and would be willing to accept that
every mailing will have to take a little more time to fix the ones
who report in error.  It is a little thing to do for an effective
cure to spam (as opposed to fighting with content filters).
