This has been discussed a few times. The short version is that this list is hosted by apache.org. They spam scan posts to their mailling lists and they aren't interested in making changes to accomodate a single list. The net result is that if you want to include a spam sample, you need to put it on a web server and link to it. If you want to refer to a spammy url, alter it so the url blacklists don't catch it. -- Bowie

That's what puzzles me - there was no spam sample, just regular discussion. -- John Hardin KA7OHZhttp://www.impsec.org/~jhardin/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]FALaholic #11174 pgpk -a [EMAIL PROTECTED] key: 0xB8732E79 -- 2D8C 34F4 6411 F507 136C AF76 D822 E6E6 B873 2E79 --- The difference is that Unix has had thirty years of technical types demanding basic functionality of it.

If their rejection didn't specify hits, you can always take your message, run it through SA and see what it hits. Alternately, send it directly to me and I'll let you know what it hits on my system. -- Bowie
