Hi All,

Sorry being a bit off-topic and having a boring subject, but we really =
should clean up whatever has been going on with so much spam hitting =
this mailing list.


NO - I am complaining about people who post things I disagree with or on =
topics I have little interest in, I am tired of the stuff like...
subject: Top rated...wireless security cameras--for both indoor & =
outdoor
subject: Save on: Hawaii, vacation packages
(classic) subject: Compare: the best, email marketing services
subject: Cards reward plans\rates =
compared(MC-Capital1-Venture-ChaseFreedom-Citicard-BankAmericard-Discover-=
Visa)
...and what not.


Has it always been the policy perhaps that this mailing list does no =
spam filtering whatsoever?  If so that would be understandable.

Meanwhile I think would be better for the community if at least some of =
the most egregious and obvious stuff did not have cpu and network cycles =
spent forwarding it onwards?
As always, I could imagine that although I think this is simple it could =
be a politically charged debate.

Cheers and please fix if possible,
- Michael DeMan
