In fact it has happened twice if I recall correctly, once a couple of weeks ago or so and the one you say. First time I thought I had mistakenly allowed the message, but after examining the member list, the member appeared as moderated (I never allow a message leaving the sender "moderated"). I manually banned the offending user and deleted the message, but this time I remember clearly having marked the message as spam and banned the user: the message went to the list anyway and I had to delete it and manually ban the user. Even though I remember having marked the message as spam, I thought that maybe I had clicked "allow" instead of "spam" by mistake. Now I see that the problem was other... > Marking a message as spam normally deletes the message and bans the > sender. The sender was banned, but some glitch meant the message was > sent anyway. In the two occasions where spam has made its way to the list, the sender was not banned, it stayed as "moderated", and that was the strangest point, because as I wrote above, I never allow or deny a message, I use the shortcuts to allow and unmoderate or deny and ban. > I am sending a copy of a message about T-shirts which I mistakenly > marked as spam recently.

Messages with "shoe", "t-shirt" and other words ring my spam bell, probably I didn't even bother to open the message if I was in a hurry. -- Raúl "DervishD" Núñez de Arenas Coronado Linux Registered User 88736 | http://www.dervishd.net It's my PC and I'll cry if I want to...
