Outside of the posted e-mail address debate here is a supplement to your spam statistics concerning FreeDOS, to keep on topic. My domain receives an average 200-300 spam and virii every day, with typical big fluctuations due to spreading of The Virus Infestation Of The Month. The FreeDOS-dedicated account has only received viruses and spam through the sourceforge mail-list posts, or possibly forged from there. Those average less than one a day, with the most in a single day being five or six based on my recollection. This, by the way, is emphatically not a challenge to those generating them to aim better. As far as FreeDOS mail-list-only generated spam and virus traffic, I see no impact in this direction. Of course, this may change in the future as the virus-writers and spammers ramp up their software's "intelligence", if you want to call that assault an "intelligent" one. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
