It really doesnt matter what i want to hear about or not. That's not what
this list is about. I dont care that he has been hacked 1,000,000 times by
1,000,000 different hackers. I dont care if he has 1,000,000 different
redudant firewalls all in a row. I dont care if 1,000,000 different credit
card numbers were stolen from an ISP. They are off topic for this list. If
you want to shoot private messages back and forth, fine with me, but
please dont drag the rest of the list in with you. This is a qmail list,
not a hack-track list, not a firewall help list.
There are appropriate places for discussion of those topics, and they
exist so you dont have to discuss those on lists where it is
inappropriate.
This really isnt rocket science, or am i just that far off the deep end?
