Well said! I would get about five to ten nervous breakdowns a day, then. :-) And after all, there *are* tools to filter (and even fight) spam, so why on earth one wouldn't take advantage of those tools? In my experience, SpamAssassin has been irreplacable - I get so much spam during a week, that it would be utterly disastrous to cope with them by hand. Fortunately, SA weeds 99% of spam and haven't catched a single "real" email yet. Pointer to Rafael; it's pretty useless to whine about spam. You will get it, one way or another. If it happened to be a public mailing list, like debian-security - so what? Quit whining and do something about it. Tune up Procmail & SpamAssassin and you don't have to tolerate spam anymore. Or is this some sort of "question of principle"? If so... *shrug* That's all I wanted to say. - -- Jussi Ekholm -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://erppimaa.ihku.org/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE9JAczAtEARxQQCB4RAr42AKCkOUAfDlce4TaWCpWUqzAHSLc+VgCePToJ wDHWRVhQuxlJI5XgeiGftaE= =Cjwx -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
