This does not address the issue of spam passing thru python-list, which I believe is supposed to be somewhat moderated (by people who have rejected my help to catch spam) to gmane, where I read it. I presume this is the path for stuff injected via google. Or perhaps stuff flows the other way. I am not sure. Or perhaps it it injected independently in both or all three places. tjr -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
