Sorry if this is a bit off-topic.
I'm looking into installing DCC (Distributed Checksum Clearninghouse)
software.
The page at https://www.dcc-servers.net/dcc/INSTALL.html says:
"The free license is intended to cover individuals and organizations
including Internet service providers using DCC to filter their own mail.
Organizations selling anti-spam appliances or managed mail services are
not eligible for the free license."
However, when I look at the actual LICENSE file that ships with the
software, it says:
* Permission to use, copy, modify, and distribute this software without
* changes for any purpose with or without fee is hereby granted,
provided
* that the above copyright notice and this permission notice appear in
all
* copies and any distributed versions or copies are either unchanged
* or not called anything similar to "DCC" or "Distributed Checksum
* Clearinghouse".

I don't see anything in there about disallowing usage of the software by
"managed mail services."
