Seems pretty incompetent to not be able to whitelist a dstribution list. This isn't nearly fair. Some of the PHP lists still have spam coming in on them, so whitelisting it will let the spam in. BTW, I just got one that *implies* php-general is using their filter. There was no other address, and it appears to be forged from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Well then, it *does* sound like something isn't right here. -- DB_DataObject_FormBuilder - The database at your fingertips http://pear.php.net/package/DB_DataObject_FormBuilder paperCrane --Justin Patrin-- -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

* Thus wrote EE: What is this? I got this message few times from php.net... This isn't a message from php.net, it appears to be someone attempting to harvest valid emails. I would suggest to report this message including all the headers but it doesn't appear they provide anyway to do such a thing. Not to mention they appear to be some sort of marketing scheme as well.

It's saying the list is signed up and people are receiving messages saying themselves are signed up when they know they haven't. I really wish we could get an active admin on the list that would react to these sorts of things. I'd volunteer, but I don't think anyone cares besides the people actually on the list.

If individuals are using spamcease then there's very little a list admin can do short of chucking them off the list. BUt if it's a bot that's subscribed to the list then yes throw it off.
