God! I'm glad I haven't gotten that one yet. I *have* had some people not get their regcode for whatever reason (probably a spam filter, like you said), although I got the CC'ed message from Kagi. Fortunately, the users I've had this happen with were polite, and it was a simple matter of them e-mailing me, and me replying with their code.

The worst is the increasing number of people who register software and their registration information never makes it through because it's being halted by one of these spam filters. The *very* worst is when the spam filter is on the user's computer, and the user doesn't even notice it.

Then he writes to you after a couple days threatening legal action if he doesn't receive his serial number with 24 hours.

Yeah, I got this one. The guy was a lawyer and probably just weighing in on his title, but it's really insane.

Yep. My favorite is when people sign up for the mailing list that I put on my site to automatically inform users of new versions of my software, and people sign up for them using one of these accounts that makes me confirm an e-mail address. Argh...
