The only reason I haven't tried Imageinfo is, if I understand how it
works it seems it would cause alot of false positives if you have people
sending pictures in the email.  People sharing pictures might not like
this.  I would really like to find a good fix as the amount of image
SPAM getting in now, its getting very bad.
