While we won't easily get rid of Outlook-viruses (since the list may appear in people's address books), at least we can get rid of the loads of warnings from misconfigured mail servers following them. -kzm -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants ___ Haskell mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell

While we won't easily get rid of Outlook-viruses (since the list may appear in people's address books), at least we can get rid of the loads of warnings from misconfigured mail servers following them. The problem with this (and the reason it hasn't been done before) is that several people subscribe to the list under a different address than the one they use to post - for example, some institutions gateway the list to a local newsgroup. We could work around this, but it would undoubtedly cause a non-zero amount of hassle. The haskell.org crew are looking into installing some spam filtering at the moment.

We could work around this, but it would undoubtedly cause a non-zero amount of hassle. I also run a mailing list using Mailman. I solve this problem by subscribing posting-only addresses nomail. If someone posts to the list and they're not subscribed, I subscribe them nomail and then approve the message. It's a bit of work but it keeps out spam. -- Ashley Yakeley, Seattle WA ___ Haskell mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell
