Well, that's a novel way of harvesting associated email address, names, and phone numbers.
Unfortunately, storing a phone number is necessary for this to work. We are open to suggestions for any better solutions
anyone may have.

#12This is silly. There are a number of ways to try bugging emails; this uses one of the oldest, and it doesn't work in much of anything anymore by default.

X-Spam-Status: No, score=3.7 required=5.0 tests=HTML_IMAGE_ONLY_08,HTML_IMAGE_RATIO_02,HTML_MESSAGE,MIME_HTML_ONLY,NO_RECEIVED,NO_RELAYS,T_DKIM_INVALID

Also since you don't verify my SMS in any way, I might be using your service to send untraceable text spams to someone (perhaps someone I don't like who pays 10 cents per text) by sending got…
Removing trap templates - excellent idea. Thank you!
Spam - good point. We need to work on verification. Currently, it only works 20 times per IP address. But that's 20 times too many.

#17I don't see any need for this, especially since it can be so easily defeated. But then again, I fall firmly in the "e-mail should just be plain text" camp.
Re: undefined
#18Yeah, unless the person doesn't enable images in their email.
this is one the reason why i didn't went with sparrow mail client even after my friends recommended it for ease of use and eye candy.

To our knowledge, the only way someone could access this information is if the web server itself is compromised.
We checked all entry points and are confident that no one will ever get access to this db.
