I was talking about a DNS blacklist (like SURBL, Spamhaus and so on). Only postings from non-subscribers would be filtered by the blacklist, so it doesn't matter if it's agressive. (Instructions to subscribe would be included in the error message.) I've just implemented this on lists.enyo.de (also a Mailman + Exim combo), and although it's a kludge (it needs suidperl, unfortunately), it seems to work. _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.abridgegame.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
