One unintended consequence of using this type of spam filter service, which rears its ugly head in my bounce-back folder, is when library patrons who use SpamArrest or similar services request automated email notices for their library account. Ha!! Oops…

Sent an email and got one back with:

"I'm protecting myself from receiving junk mail.
Please click the link below to complete the verification process. 
You have to do this only once. "
A link was here

The link took me to a standard "type in the letters shown" page.
Then my email was delivered.
And I could get a verification of delivery back.
