-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: RIPEMD160 Excellently put, as usual. While I already weighed in with support for Greg's initial "at least let it _send_ email" pitch, I am more in the RGB camp with what he says below.
I never noticed this one, nor have I noticed any spam hitting this list. My revised vote: keep things the way they are or reduce some of the human time spent if you need to.
