De facto, they've done that for years.  Anybody with a Hotmail account
gets spammed even if they never make their address public.  More
likely due to incompetence or Hotmail employees taking bribes than
top-level policy, but a pro-spammer privacy policy could hardly make
Hotmail any worse than it is already.

Well for what its worth from a brand new subscriber, I would vote for allowing only
subscribers to post!  That is the way it is on most lists of all sorts.  And perhaps 
your
list needs to implement some message filters of somesort to block receiption from
spammers.  I know these morons jump addresses as soon as one is blocked, but the 
filters
at least slow them down a bit.

| Yes, please stop the spam.

I'll chime in with another vote to limit posting to subscribers.

And while we're on the spam topic, there's an interesting notice over
at slashdot:

  "East Side Journal reports that without telling  anyone,  Microsoft
  has suddenly changed the privacy preferences for all Hotmail users.
  They're now sharing your name and other personal  information  with
  third  parties,  even  if  you  said  you didn't want that when you
  signed up.  (If you're a user, login,  go  to  Options  >  Personal
  Profile, and un-check the boxes at the bottom of that page.)"

Yahoo did this last month, of course.  The lack of any punishment for
this  act seems to have encouraged Microsoft to follow suit.  And, if
you're a hotmail subscriber, it may be too late to fix  it.   By  the
time  you  turn  your settings off, they've likely sold their mailing
list to N spammers already, who are in turn selling it to others.

Others have observed that only a few browsers are able to get  access
to  the Personal Profile pages.  IE can, of course, and some versions
of Netscape.  Most others just get a notice that you're not using  an
approved  browser.   Opera  users can tell it to fake an IE id.  Most
others will be locked out by their valid-browser check.

Here we go again... Tony?? Are you out there?

Anyways seems this is leading nowhere, and since I don't know the exactly
correct way of handling this Í propose the following:

1) Let's "vote" about what the opinion is with spam. Do you think it's a
good idea that only subscribers can post here.

2) When that's done and assuming the majority "votes" "yes", I'll Toby a
mail to take the necessary actions.
