It's a bad day if there are more than 3 emails in total to this list. If you look at the number of initial posts (not counting replies) on this list, that is how many valid posts I get, since around 99% od posts appearing here have been moderated. As I said, around 2 to 3 spam emails per day (there are sometimes more, but Spam Assassin catches most of those. I've had 3 today that Gmail's filters didn't catch. > > Nontheless, sometimes a valid e-mail finds its way to the list, but > sadly, I don't find the time to moderate all lists, so only once in a > while I can moderate a message through. > > So here's a call for help. ;-) The list(s) I post this message to can > use one or two additional moderators who share the duty. I can actually handle this list solo most of the time. Only if I plan to be away for a couple of weeks would someone else need to step in, so what is really needed here is a standby moderator. > > Anyone interested in helping out?
