-=> All of you, stop whinging about the tiny bit of spam that -=> makes it through the list filters.

I beg your pardon ? Tiny ? Well, if you call 50+ in the last two weeks tiny, I guess that's so... Anyway, who made you the bloody mailing list police ? Some of us "whiny gits", as you so eloquently put it, have to PAY for the data we download over piss-poor 56k dial-up connections. Not EVERYONE has the luxury of ADSL or CABLE. I get more spam from this list than any other I'm on. John, sounds like you've been taking personality lessons from Jeff...:-) Try taking your head out of your ass for a change. -=> -=> > Or better yet --- member only. -=> -=> We've had this discussion too. It's not going to happen. -=> You asked for this a couple of weeks ago and were told so -=> then, what makes you think the answer's going to be any -=> different this time? Jeff's gone.... Yes, the admins are volunteers, and a members-only list would LESSEN the workload, not increase it. If you can't see that then maybe you should go back to Windows... You're obviously too THINK to use Linux !
