Of course. It is ment to catch trojans and spybots that steal valid emails without the user beeing aware of it. > Isn't there some way we can track these morons down and say "HEY > IDIOT, GO SPAM AOL OR SOMETHING AND LEAVE US TECHIES ALONE"? If some human is forwarding the list address purposely to spammers then this method won't help. The only efficient filtering system I can think of would use mail signature (pkcs7/pgp). Such signature can be generated for free it is only used for a specific application like a mailing list. It could be done with Python I think. For such kind of applications there is no need to renew certificates every year. A 10 to 20 year certificate would be safe enough for such kind of application. ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
