It may be interesting to read the Public Forum Archive Policy of the Apache Foundation: http://www.apache.org/foundation/public-archives.html In response to: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/commons-user/200704.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] And I quote: You should also be aware that there are many public archives of the Apache mailing lists that will contain a copy of your original e-mail. Apache has no control over these archives. unquote. Same goes for the Spambayes/Python public mailing lists. -- Amedee _______________________________________________ SpamBayes@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes Info/Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes Check the FAQ before asking: http://spambayes.sf.net/faq.html
