Dan, Thanks for waiting on a response. There is a common misconception about white lists. While your comment is along those lines, it is not unusual. The common misconception about white lists is that it is a exclusive list of allowed email. This is not the case. In fact, it is just a list of emails that get priority. I am by no means advocating, or suggesting, that a person use white lists as the only people one should get email from. As for public contact via email, there are solutions, but that is part of my talk. I plan to present these points again, at many different club meetings. My impression, as with ssh, is that the technical community is spending too much time on the wrong problem. Sure one might make lots of money selling knock-off copies of Spam-Assassin, but it does not solve the issue. For that matter, neither Spam-Assassin nor Bayesian(sp?) filters will make a bit of difference in the long run. Sure someone will profess to have great success with it, but I hardly find that to be the general case. Before I digress into dribble, let me leave it at that. As for [EMAIL PROTECTED], et al. :p Have a nice day, Dan.

SVBUG what happened tonight (12-04-2003)
Announcement for 2003-12-04 Topic: What happened to me tonight. The reflections of a night can at times be beyond one's control. To make it short, I got in a car accident tonight. I am okay, nothing wrong; just a shaken realization. As the CHP officer said, your still alive. And I am glad of that. My vehicle is totaled and replacement will not be easy. At least not as easy as when I worked in the tech sector. My decision has been and always will be to stay in computers. However, it's a pity that my life decisions are not as good a my technical. (some might argue otherwise). To surmise I'm a bit melancholy, but what's important to you is this: Jon Syrstad of Ampex has confirmed that my findings that using a white list is the key to avoiding spam. He estimates that within a month his job of reviewing the daily SPAM from 8 times a day for legitamite email to once. Jon uses a full set of tools and is personally charged by the CEO to reduce SPAM. He has both commercial and open source tools. None have been or will every be as effective as a white list, consisting of family, friends, business associates and people you really want to talk to. So, as a local company selling cell phone service likes to say, get off 'their' clock, permission to speak freely.

Hi Could you please discuss spam issues on a spam list. Your mail has nothing to do with FreeBSD. I'm sorry about your car accident, but that is also not hackers@ material. It is, however OK for [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks! M [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Announcement for 2003-12-04 Topic: What happened to me tonight.
