My two cents. 1. Moderation wrt to holding new member emails in Q, only to verify that the new member is not a bot - Required 2. Moderation wrt to formatting - previously required. Not necessary to continue, email clients have evolved. 3. HTML Mail not allowed - This is okay, a lot of people still use text only mail, even inside thunderbird 4. Quality of questions or discussions - If the 'good' people are missing from the list, discussions will never be good. To retain the interest of the good people, what ever steps necessary should be taken. 5. I can understand why moderator names might be with held. I don't see anything wrong with that part. I understand the kind of unnecessary abuse s/he has to under go, also I very well know how people form personal opinions. People fail to see, that a moderator might have taken steps, which are a part of his job or duty and not due to some personal issues or tiffs.
Let us not "open - up" the entire list, let us just relax a few filters, eg: top posting, suspicious headers, etc. Regards Aditya On 1 January 2013 21:15, Mandar Vaze / मंदार वझे <mandarv...@gmail.com>wrote: > > This mailing list has 'bugs'.
