RE: [OT] SPAM
Hi Stephen, Unfortunately this is not a moderated list. Basically anybody can join, send an email and then vanish. Nothing much to be done about it. I would however note, this is only about the third time in a couple of years listening that I've seen anything.

Yes, and it's on our list-admin's TODO to move this list to another list server very soon. Please be patient for just a little longer - it's going to happen RSN and this sql,query thing will go away. Adding some more words to the filter was just a preliminary action until it's fixed for good.

OT: Spam Filter (again)
Just for anyone who cares (or cares to do the same), when I reply to messages at my average 80wpm and hit send, I don't check if SQL,QUERY,etc. is in the message 90% of the time. Now, besides thanking the crew for adding a couple more keywords to the filter, it still ticks me off to get a bounce to a legitimate response. If I get such bounces from now on, I'm ignoring them (that includes the last 3 messages I've sent). I'm not going to bother to retype / reformat / forward (because its ugly) the messages. I always reply-to-all, so the author of the previous message gets their copy. PS, it wouldn't be that hard (depending on your mail distribution method) to allow subscribers to post without going through the filter and only filter unsubscribed people. PPS, you could always make it database-driven and add people who post successfully more than once a week to the no-spam-check list instead. -- Michael T.

Re: OT: Spam Filter (again)
Allow postings from members only. or I think it's on the PHP lists, if a non-members sends a message he/she gets a message back. After replying to that message the original one hits the list.. mysql, query B. At 14:37 18-12-2002 -0500, Michael T.

I always reply-to-all, so the author of the previous message gets their copy. I implemented a very simple trick. My mailer is configured to notice when I'm posting to a MySQL list. When I am, it auto-appends the real-time stats from our master server below my sig file. That's enough to make the filter happy. But, yeah, I agree.

Re: OT: Spam
I hope everyone grabs the headers from that message (and any other spam they receive) and reports it to spamcop.net to help us all block these people. PS, this has nothing to do with MySQL, Databases or ACID compliance, but this line should ironically get me past the spam filter :) -- Michael T.
