Ok, what if the [EMAIL PROTECTED] rules were adopted immediately ?
The only rule I can find on www.dnso.org is
"Anybody can subscribe to this list, however, the Names Council
reserves the right to remove subscribers from the list -after a
warning- if they use the list to slander or insult others."
Which is probbaly something we should do anyway.

No problem, every [EMAIL PROTECTED] that exists is now set up
@dnso.com, but goes to this list.
