To whom would this suggestion best be directed? ... As someone who has maintained a couple of WG mailing lists for several years, I'd object to the imposition of such a requirement. The amount of spam, especially *large* (megabyte or more) viral messages, directed at WG mailing lists makes keeping all the trash a highly unattractive proposition. (Much of the viral spam I see bears the forged addresses of legitimate subscribers, so I have to resort to other mechanisms to keep the lists clean.) ------------------------------------------------------ Randy Presuhn BMC Software, Inc.
