That would also prevent crossposts between lists, which is a very useful thing at times (eg. a crosspost between linux-crypto and linux-fsdevel). To make the spam situation better, I have added spamassassin to the spam filter of NL.linux.org, now all mailing list mail undergoes the following checks: 1) DNSBL tests: SPEWS, spamhaus, DSBL and relays.visi.com 2) spamassassin 3) spamfilter, http://spamfilter.nl.linux.org/ kind regards, Rik -- Bravely reimplemented by the knights who say "NIH". http://www.surriel.com/ http://distro.conectiva.com/ - Linux-crypto: cryptography in and on the Linux system Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-crypto/
