 Not quite a way to handle this problem. If the admin can spend some time
 configuring blacklists, it will save a lot of members from getting such
 mails. Clearly, the mail is sent from mem...@linkedin.com, and you can just
 add it to blacklist.  Rather than adding user and humiliating it. These
 sites, socials networks has so many places where a person fall in their trap
 out of curiosity. Then he learns. And what are you doing to them? Calling
 them MORON, and listing them in a page, like putting in box of shame. I also
 didn't like your idea of listing their email in a page, as they did some
 sort of mistakes. You are now hitting their privacy by listing their EMAIL
 without their permission in a open page, where spammers can collect these
 emails.

You are right: Name-calling was uncalled for, and I apologise to Aman for
that.

However, in my opinion, it is completely fair to put such abusers of mailing
lists on a hall of shame. People should be responsible for their own actions:
In this case lazily exposing all one's addresses to spammers like LinkedIn.
Raj has already made the case for this eloquently, so I will not add to that.

Just a note: The email addresses are obfuscated from automated harvesters
by adding a NOSPAM tag, though the original poster had no qualms about
enabling spam on this list. Also, as noted, people can go edit the Wiki page.

Gora

  3. and by keywords (i.e) ROR, PHPMYSQL etc.
  4. We can also see description of job,  if we needed.

I've always been intrigued by the linkedin spam on this list. All are 
addressed to Vinay. I couldn't find any user Vinay in the past archives.


Aman - is the e-mail address of Vinay ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org or

Aman-

Dude, it wouldn't hurt to check the email-id itself before shooting off a
mail to anyone. Your friend Vinay in your contact list is saved as

Vinay Kumar Gupta il...@frodo.hserus.net

which is _this_ mailing list's address.

Just for this instance, I would like to extend my apologies to LinkedIn.

Maybe the users here aren't actually opening up their address books to 
linkedin. Almost all wanted to add Vinay for some reason. So, their 
addition to the hall of shame may need a review :-) Rather this Vinay is 
the culprit who would need to change his email address.

Please ignore this - I am using Thunderbird, and it shows the Name from 
the address book instead of the actual name to which it is addressed. So 
I didn't see the name 'Vinay Kumar Gupta'. Instead I saw The 
Linux-Delhi mailing list (which is in my address book).


Sorry about that.

My apologies. This has been delayed, partly due to personal

I will confer with them, and post an update here within this

Oh, come on!

I suppose you think that LinkedIn hacked into your email account,
and sent out messages willy-nilly to everyone. Somewhere in the
process, *you* allowed those unethical spammers access to your
address book. IMHO, you should take responsibility for that.
