liverable message was some piece of German pollitical spam
(pretty nasty from the titles although I haven't actually read any).
Am I going to get blacklisted when people report this to Spamcop or
take other anti-spam measures? Can I do anything about it?
Cheers,

Thanks for that, Alex. It's funny how some of the most useful things
you learn here have nothing to do specifically with debian and
certainly nothing to do with the subject of the t
