Wouldn't it be more straightforward to inform those whose mailboxes generated the rejections, instead of posting a "public announcement" that leaves everyone guessing whether they may somehow unknowingly involved? I've encountered this kind of bringing public attention to a problem that actually is caused by few people, and it always leaves a somewhat uneasy feeling. Or is it actually a problem with so many mailboxes that it's just easier to notify the whole list? :-)
I don't think Graeme was trying to speak to the people who actively have this problemn but rather to those of us not yet afflicted. Good spam filters evolve and it is better to protect yourself from letting them evolve to disdain this list before it happens rather than waiting for a problem. Every incident of spam filters rejecting list traffic can damage the functional reputation of the list and the facilities it uses.
