The list is moderated only for new members (and members like the OP who get re-moderated/placed on no-post.) New members who post often and demonstrate they aren't outright spammers, get 'unmoderated'. (In addition, older members who were here before new member moderation was put in place are also unmoderated.) The OP has been a member of this group since early 2005 where they asked some valid questions, and has posted very little since then. I suspect a possible forgery, but have placed them back on moderation, just in case. > Spam has been showing up more and more since I joined up (not so long ago). As one of the moderators, I've seen very little spam (I recall less than 3 this year,) though from one recent incident, I've found that Gmail are outright blocking some of it (instead of placing it in my spam folder.) If you are aware of spam that doesn't seem to have been addressed, email the moderators ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) so we can address it. Note that some 'spam' may have been forged to have come from a non-moderated member - and yahoo has let it through without verifying that the alleged sender is the real sender (as has been the case in some previous incidents.) -- PJH #700847 +(1920)- [X] andyg721: i think it was on CNN andyg721: Condoleeza Rice went to Asia andyg721: the headline was RICE IN ASIA
