No need to be so sorry. Dan just wanted you to change the subject line so that the Spam email remained spam and this started a new thread. I made the same mistake by responding to you (twice) on the old thread. No one is criticizing you for the question -- as you can see, there are two sides to every question ...

You may not need to go to all the trouble of setting up your own spam killer at least not for the Bacula lists. Russell Howe has offered to do the administration, which means we will probably make the list subscriber only, but Russell will let through the non-spam. The best of both worlds for everyone except Russell. I'd like to wait to hear all the input from those who want to respond, before making the final decision. > > Jo > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.Net email is sponsored by Oracle Space Sweepstakes > Want to be the first software developer in space? > Enter now for the Oracle Space Sweepstakes! > http://ads.osdn.com/?ad_id=7412&alloc_id=16344&op=click > _______________________________________________ > Bacula-users mailing list > Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users -- Best regards, Kern ("> /\ V_V ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Oracle Space Sweepstakes Want to be the first software developer in space?
