he might be right. a random bot is more likely to spam [EMAIL PROTECTED] than [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Ok, right...
a compromise woud be la-user, la-dev , la-ann - or [EMAIL PROTECTED] (mailing-list), etc. (but that's not catchy enough)
Agreed
I'd suggest to alias the other way round: if [EMAIL PROTECTED] is Spammed, you can announce and drop this feature again while everyone with "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" in their address book won't ever notice.
If I understand you well, it means making [EMAIL PROTECTED] an alias (that can be dropped if causing too much issues) right ?
in short term [EMAIL PROTECTED] will have less SPAM than linux-audio-dev, and in the long-run SpamAssassin will mark dup.-postings in blacklists..
Well, to be honest ATM there seems to be no spam on linux-audio-dev to be moderated and none received in my mailbox (from lad). It has always surprised me.
OTOH; with [EMAIL PROTECTED] - we'd benefit from a shorter subject! [la-dev] compared to [linux-audio-dev] - there are usually < 50 chars for subject in a 80x24 terminal :) - for email shortcuts there is an addressbook and personally I use "LAD" as nick for it.
Prefix for the subject line can be changed. It's the subject_prefix parameter. we could make it [LAD], [LAU] and [LAA] (that's the shortest I can think of and it would make terminal users happy). __________________ Marc-Olivier Barre, Markinoko.
