The list blocks any un-registered users from sending mail. All new members can be put on moderation for the first X posts, whatever X is. All decent spam filters do a reverse DNS lookup of the SMTP server. Shouldn't these three filters and moderation rules together be sufficient to stop spam? This mailing list has 'bugs'. Subscribers don't want an explanation of why the bugs exist. They want the bugs fixed. Getting notifications of events after the event has occurred or a few hours before the event is not acceptable. Fixing this is higher priority than preventing occasional lottery notifications. -d _______________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List
