Or even allowed on a list What many lists I belong to help avoid this is disallow any reposting of the footers. That way an automated process like this would never get through. It requires the users posting, us, to cut off the footers manually but that keeps the lists mean and lean. Initially I hated it but they are right. They do not allow HTML and they allow no footers and it works well.
Jpsoft.com is one such list DFC -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of William Stillwell Sent: Monday, May 02, 2005 2:59 PM To: Declude.Virus@declude.com Subject: Re: [Declude.Virus] Is this sort of stuff necessary on a list?

I posted to list about a virus problem then I get this stupid (IMHO) challenge-response stuff. If everyone did this on all the lists I belong to - I would do a posting and then spend the next 3 days answering all the challenge-responses. I think I will report this as spam.
