*"Spam" is defined as, "A single or collection of unsolicited bulk messages." As much as you would like to claim what you are receiving is "spam" it is not. You, and the rest of us, signed up for this list, therefore it is not "unsolicited".

While I also am starting to find the number of messages a bit time consuming, it is, nevertheless, NOT spam. If you unsubscribe and continue to receive these messages, THEN it would be considered "spam". I'm all for the digest option at this point.

All,

This morning I have been spammed over 16 times by BVARC emails saying things like "I agree" and similar, and I dread to think how much more of my time (& others) is going to be wasted if we expand any kind of electronic communications without the discipline necessary to avoid becoming a group of Spammers.

Sure, I can redirect/block/divert/recategorize received emails to lessen the disruption, but that would mean to risk missing the few that are actually useful.

If we're going to continue using email as IM, then it requires a Moderator just like any large group. If not, then count me out.

Please do not respond to this email - I really have had enough of this.

Tnx

        Blog  we keep track of the conversations an avoid to receive
        many email back in force. My opinion is email is not made for
        chat. Only a suggestion.

        If you agree with Pump, not having time to read a blog,

        Then why do you want us to have a blog??

        We have had a blog before and no one used it

        If you do set up a blog, make it independent of the email
        system.  I don't

        think I will have time to read a blog.

        We can install a blog on the website if there is enough
        interest..

        We currently have facebook, its kinda like a blog and fairly
        active..

        What kind of threat are you talking about??

        Im not sure if you are talking about the reflector or not...
        Every once in a while

        when it gets real busy or a hot topic pops up, then a lot of
        emails come pretty

        quickly.. Once in a while someone complains that the
        reflector is filling up their inbox.

        From the reflector point of view it is nice to see it very
        active...

        solution or advice: Every email the reflector sends out has
        "[BVARC]"

        in the title... almost ANY email client can be set up to
        filter the [BVARC]

        and drop it in a BVARC folder in your mail program....then it
        does not clog

        your inbox or interfere with your normal emails and you can
        go read the

        BVARC folder at your leisure..

        OR

        You can set the reflector to send you the reflector emails in
        digest mode...

        one big email instead of a bunch of individuals..

        Hope this helps

        Happy Sunday, July 24, 2022; there is no way to add a blog
        page on the website? Like this, will we not receive lots of
        emails from everyone responding to the threat?

        I see an email for content or sent a specific message but not
        as a blog—just my 2 cents.
