Braddy,

Unfortunelly this is the "default" configuration for all UOL (ISP here at
Brazil) users. :S It's not only annoyng but a great tool to leave their
users' mailbox empty. Because I'll never lose even 10 sec. confirming that
my e-mail exists. There's another way to do it (more smart for sure).

Your attitude it's exactly mine... I had configured a filter called Lixo UOL
(UOL trash), that every confirmation from UOL I send to trash... For those
that are UOL users, I'm sorry but you'll never get an answer from myself if
needed to confirm anything...

Rgds,
Fernando Lima

Its very annoying. Personally I would dive off a cliff before i took 
this approach to filtering my email. How annoying for all your friends. I
just added a filter so that these emails go straight to my junk folder. :)
