Re: UCE from list

I don't think I'm interested in pursuing this much further, but I just wanted to point out a couple of things I found in the LEM Rules of List Management : "Off topic: Anything not covered by the primary focus of the list. In general, computer, OS, software,

Re: UCE from list

Guys, Maybe the best thing to do is to mail Dan Knight directly about this, rather than keep discussing it on the list. As someone who maintains various mailing lists, I know I don't always have the time to read every post on every list. Kyle probably doesn't have any control over how the arch

Re: UCE from list

So the answer to the question "why is this considered off-topic?" is "shut up." Got it. Thanks. On 2/11/04 8:14 AM, "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> On 2/10/04 11:43 PM, "Mitch Hogg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> >>> Why is this not considered on-topic? Discussion of

Re: UCE from list

I entirely concur with this. Ever since the archive has been put to the web, the spam level has increased significantly for me as well. Perhaps we can make the list a password only access? that would be great! Tom In a message dated 2/9/04 3:00:12 PM, you wrote: > >I doubt spammers are subscr

Re: UCE from list

I love the irony that the FAQ states only subscribers can e-mail the list and no you can't see a list of subscribers - it notes both of these things are to prevent spam ... Then I do a search in Google for my name and boom, I get all of my posts from the LEM lists with my e-mail and name attach

Re: UCE from list

I respectfully suggest to the listmom that whenever a new mailing list mechanism is finally established for the LEM-related lists, that he find a way to either restrict access to the list archive to those subscribed, or that the archived posts be scrubbed of email addresses. Then I'll re-subsc

Re: UCE from list

I second that motion, while I dont have a problem with spam really, the practice of our addresses being posted at large to the internet would seem to be a veritable smorgasbord for spammers. I too, respectfully ask that those in charge of the list archives look into scrubbing our addresses from

UCE from list

I am sure I'm not the only one who's experienced the rising tide of unsolicited commercial email ("spam") from this list. The reason I'm sure of that is because of the 8 email accounts I use, this is one of my least frequently used accounts, essentially only for these two LEM lists. Yet it ac
