I don't wish to criticize the list masters (particularly because I don't think _they're_ the problem - people like you are, with your desire to keep the lists wide open), but they do _not_ do a good job with spam, or we wouldn't have the problem with it on the Debian lists. I see absolutely no reason why the lists should be open to all posters. It's not hard to figure out how to subscribe to a list - even Windows users do it all the time. -- derek -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
