I was writing a script to send automatically the contents of my "spam" mbox to ACMA when I noticed that I *might* have been digging a hole for SLUG.

After manually consigning all the incoming spam to my spam box I then ran my shell script as a test, sending the offending emails to me and not ACMA.

Lo and Behold! All the spam that came out of the SLUG mailing lists was there. Would ACMA realize that the spam was not originating with SLUG? or would they tell SLUG to stop sending spam?

Comments, anyone?

Of course, it's easy to avoid processing mailing-list messages that have been accidentally dumped into the spam folder and not nuked. But I am concerned about ACMA's reaction if they receive same.
