Hello,
Due to the increasing volume of spam, I have now restricted this list to
member only posting.
Good. My junk folder was filling faster than before during the last days...
All posts by non-subscribers will, unfortunately, be treated (at least for the
moment) automatically by a program. I'll try to send them back to the poster
with a message, but I'm not sure that works ...
Don't do that. You can be almost absolutely sure that the sender
addresses of spam are forged, and you would annoy many people. Either
first try to filter spam (of course, you would do that and still allow
non-subscribers to post if this were an option) or have the mail
rejected when it is posted, so the upstream mailer has to decide what to
do :-)
Probably the best solution, though, would be to simply drop the messages
and, to inform people of that, post a regular information notice to the
list. And make a note in the manual.
People reading the archives or using gmane would (hopefully) notice these.
