RE: SPAM was RE: INSURE GOOD RECEPTION! VITAL EMERGENCY STRATEGY!!!
While the traffic load on debian-user, for instance, makes subscribing just to ask one question somewhat hazardous to ones mailspool, I agree with making debian-security posting by subscriber only. It really isn't moderating, and doesn't take anyones time. To whom should we address the suggestion? Curt- -Original Message- From: Oyvind A.

Wouldn't it just be better if the lists accepted mail from members only, and for those e-mail addresses that aren't subscribed, a couple of list admins could approve them? I don't think the fine for spam is being enforced, but I'm only guessing. Cya.
