Especially since there are some very aggressive anti-spammers lurking about on various mailing lists like this, and they may well add you to a blacklist just because you say that you're running a mailing list that doesn't do confirmation. And it will be virtually impossible for you to get yourself removed from many blacklists like that. > Anyway, I see from a later post of yours that you found out how to do > the configuration you want. Please consider that step carefully. Inded, Kalin -- be very, very careful. I'm sorely tempted to submit you to some blacklists myself, and I know that I'm not the most violently aggressive anti-spammer around. -- Brad Knowles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Consultant & Author LinkedIn Profile: <http://tinyurl.com/y8kpxu> Slides from Invited Talks: <http://tinyurl.com/tj6q4> ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [email protected] 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
