Ditto for me. Especially when using gmane, but also on the Google Groups interface. I'm not sure what it is about this particular list that invites spam. FWIW, your post didn't come across like a complaint or an ask at all, to me at least. The spam is an annoyance to many regular users, I imagine, myself included. To new users, the list might give an impression of an unmaintained wasteland upon an initial cursory look. > - Message moderation: moderate messages from non-members > - New member restrictions: no posting restriction for new members > - Spam message handling: moderate and notify content moderators > > and I get an occasional admin mail from google about something > questionable in the queue - it's very easy to handle and if it wasn't > I'd invite more list managers. > Thanks for sharing your experience, it's good to know moderation is low effort. Jason Chu above suggested similar settings as well (in addition to kindly volunteering to moderate), and now, I do see the value of it. Martin, perhaps the continuing and possibly increasing spam is a good reason to reconsider changing to the settings above that Simon and Jason suggested? And if Jason is still up for it, taking him up on his offer to handle non-member moderation? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Beancount" group.
