A lot of the unwanted, off topic postings we get on the ietf list, seem to be specifically directed at us. For example, the political diatribes from "kysi feryl" (did I spell that right?). People who want to advertise to or spam on the ietf list specifically, will obviously not be turned away by any requirement to pre-register your From: line before posting. Closed posting is fine for small private lists that want to stay private, but this list is too large, public, and visible for it to be appropriate or useful here. -- -- Cos [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- accessline: 781-273-2380 -- (Ofer Inbar) [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- pager: 800-351-9387
