That may help cut the spam. Get rid of the newsgroup reflection of this list and getting the freebsd.org site search for the archives sorted out would also be a good idea. I am fed up tracing the headers, finding the apparent source of spam and getting unsatisfactory auto-responder replies back (or no reply at all). Do many people on this list use hotmail ? I am thinking of putting a complete REJECT on hotmail originated messages except for the few personal friends I know who use it. Hotmail and Yahoo are almost always the From address in these spams. -- Regards Cliff To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
