I'd much prefer point-of-use filtering, so I have control of it. And having to login to a forum to send a message doesn't prevent the spam problem, as I have found.
73, doug Date: Wed, 3 Sep 2008 10:02:06 -0700 (PDT) From: "Julian, G4ILO" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> It has always filtered on individual words. Perhaps some new words have been added. The problem is that email reflectors are an outdated technology from the days when spam was not an issue. There is no requirement to log in to a system before you can post. You can just address an email to the list server. And anyone can spoof the sender address so that a message appears to come from a registered subscriber. A spam filter is the only way to stop such attempts. Perhaps the one used by QTH.NET is particularly dumb, but I don't think any spam filter is 100% accurate. _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
