Nobody has yet volunteered to receive and filter by hand all incoming posts to the mailing list. (they call this a moderated list) I'm sure that if someone was serious about it and could demonstrate that they would be able to devote 24 hours a day to hand filtering, 365 days a year, then the postmaster would probably set that up. ;-) >There should at least be a disclaimer on all new shipments that if your ISP is full of >dumbasses like mine you won't be able to write to the list due to the strict filtering rules. How about: WARNING - Continuing to pay dumbass ISP's that don't have PTR records for their mailservers merely rewards them for doing a bad job and does not provide incentive to correct the problem.
