Hi I am new to this group and currently in the lurk stage
but can I pass a comment/suggestion. I get a huge amount of spam, and on a cursory glance a lot of the mail from this group "appears" spammy I am not saying it is, just that when you view the subject lines they often appear like subjects designed to foil filtering systems can I suggest a standard element be placed in the subject line such as I have done that way it will be easier to seperate the linux bios mailings from the spam mailings I am also a member of the ASRG "Anti Spam Research Group" and they use a system that looks like this subject: [ASRG] 3: description the number is for pre-organised topics such as 0 = general 1 = new ideas etc...
