Hiya, Again going on with this as it's IMO symptomatic of a set of no-longer-valid critiques that are worth calling out... On 14/10/2023 23:03, Rob Sayre wrote:

It is certainly true that you can tune up a message filter. But new people can't do that. How would they know?
I do not believe this bot's mails are really a significant issue for anyone, including people new to the list (who aren't new people, just people who are new here:-)
Here, you have a basically useless spam bot that some people have problems with.
I have no problem with the bot's mails. I do have a problem with those being complained about as if they were a significant problem.
But it is actually worse than that, since some of the messages here are performative dismissiveness. Just how entitled do you have to be to write "I am muting this thread"? You could just mute it...
I'm sure the words above meant something to you as you typed them, but sorry, I'm not at all getting what you wanted so say;-) S.
thanks, Rob
