No offence to any of you, but could we please stop discussing the spam

Regardless, you should all be savvy enough to set up your own filtering 
software if you see the need.




Err -- Maybe we should only allow members of the list to post to the list?


Keep in mind that hundreds of other people are on this list aside from 
yourself, and every one of them has been sent all the same messages as you.


It may also pay to remember that if someone can post spam, then they can 
certainly monitor the lists and add your email addresses to their 
databases when you post.. (especially now that you've put up your hand 
as taking notice of their emails!)


This may well be a case of he who screams loudest gets first served (a 
steaming hot plate of spam and phish)

[gentoo-web-user] Spam?

2006-05-15 Thread fire-eyes
Is anyone else getting flooded with spam in the form of fake paypal security 
notices? I've probably had 12 today alone. I can't tell if it's coming 
through the list or just pretending...

When you walk across the fields with your mind pure and holy, then from
all the stones, and all growing things, and all animals, the sparks of
their soul come out and cling to you. And then they are purified, and
become a holy fire in you. -- Ancient Hasidic Saying

Yeah, it's coming through the list, although the antispam setup on woodpecker is
doing a good job filtering it out for me.
