Well, thank you yet again, for your help. I have (finally?) submitted this proposed rule as bug #2982. I know that this isn't your doing, but I do find that working from a web interface is rather inconvenient (my web browser is not nearly the text editor that my text editor is) and in some ways awkward. The Bugzilla system asked me to re-authenticate at every step (that may be due to restrictive cookie settings), and simply didn't represent (to me, at least) a very effective interface. I might just be old (in Internet years, of course), but I much prefer to just submit something of this sort via an email message, which I can retain a copy of (I did enter my email address in the Cc: field of the bugzilla submission form, so I expect I'll have a copy for tracking), and refer to. My mail software permits me to use my favorite text editor, making text entry much easier than a web browser can frankly ever hope for ... Alright, I'll quit ranting. The SpamAssassin folks, and all those who contribute new rules are doing good work, and I shouldn't rant. Then again, I tried to submit my rule to the exit0.us site yesterday, but couldn't figure out how to get the submission form there at all. This just shouldn't be all that difficult. :-( Thanks again, Robert, for all your help. I'll be sure to post any additional rules I come up with that have some chance of being effective ... -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sylvain Robitaille [EMAIL PROTECTED] Systems analyst / Postmaster Concordia University Instructional & Information Technology Montreal, Quebec, Canada ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
