hello lad & lau readers ! after having a bit of a spam problem lately (not that the spam was that much, but the list host got blacklisted by spamcop and bounces went through the roof), i have added some rustic message filtering to the lists.
as of yesterday, the following posts will be rejected: * size over 40k * html or "mixed" messages * messages with most binary attachments * messages containing some spam keywords * messages to "Undisclosed Recipients" these rules will be extended if further spam gets through. i'm not exactly a perl god, but i hope i got it right. still, those of you who filter incoming mail against spamcop are likely to reject list mail for about one week each time a spam message goes through and is reported to spamcop. there is nothing i can do about it at the moment. i hope that we will eventually switch to a mailing list software that allows for better filtering and slightly saner headers. best, j�rn
