Drat, i forgot that it was set that way. I wonder if, with our email obfuscation efforts with the Forrest website, we might be getting less spam now. Should we try opening it up? We should be encouraging cross-project discussion and not let spam stifle that. I still don't understand why we get so much spam. Doesn't the mail system at Apache do spam filtering? Or do the moderation messages bypass that. --David
