Perhaps, an automatic message (with pointers, etc.) should be sent in response to an e-mail coming back from a not-yet-seen address? Also, some frequently spammed news-groups and mailing lists have adopted a practice of requiring every posting to contain a special word (such as FBSD). The way we can use this would be: "if you post from a non-registered address, add FBSD at the end of the subject line". Is this to narrow of a hoop? -mi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
