Adding to work load. And I don't use tbird filters.
they can come in handy tho for what gets thru spam filtering.
*All* of my spam filtering is handled by automated processes. So, "to me" the need to manually add filters *is* more trouble. You can't dispute how I feel.
no dispute. but manual filtering does come in handy. especially when it comes to cleaning up a tech list.

lol. actually, i was using it for 'soap box'. but i guess your interpretation could apply. [now i am going to catch it]
They should not be placed in the position in the first place, IMHO.
again, 100%. but it is a fact of a tech support list that there will be posters with nothing better to do than load down a list. if they want to bash heads, it would be more effective/affective if they would do it in a 'chat' some where. then they could interrupt each other and make it more to their level.
I have seen people using procmail filtering and weights and malformed rules getting mail discarded when they did not intend it to be so.
all a part of a learning curve that has to be dealt with. and a reason that i do all my additional filtering with tbird. with tbird, i set up filtering for tech list and non tech list, friends and relatives, all by sender address. then i filter for html, which is used by majority of spammers. what is left goes to 'occupant' which i will check for time to time and usually 'delete all'. it is not a perfect world, but best around so far. -- tc,hago. g . in a free world without fences, who needs gates. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
