I've run a GIS-related software oriented list for years too, and I feel your pain. The godsdamned spammers are worse than Hitler. They killed Usenet and now they're killing Mailing lists by wearing out the moderators' patience. We finally moved to Google Groups, which does a good job of blocking spam while allowing both a web forum interface as well as e-mails. But doing that you give up some control over the look and feel, and of course, you're feeding the Google juggernaut. - Bill Thoen _______________________________________________ Geowanking mailing list [email protected] http://lists.burri.to/mailman/listinfo/geowanking
