As much as I hate to receive spam job posts, we shouldn't forget that these jobs ( and job posts ) do play a HUGE role in Rails' overall success and enable people to work on the stuff we love. So if these ads are helping even a very small fraction of the 15k userbase, they're worth keeping. However, I do vote for us trying to enforce '[JOBS]' subject prefix, so that people can easily filter those emails if they want to.
