Eh... I have to confess... I submitted a query to freebsd-questions, in response to someone's question about the increased volume of spam, just meekly notifying mailman@ (and ccing questions) that this was happening with other lists too. Hopefully nobody got too annoyed with me. For future reference, to whom to we send such notifications? mailman@? Boy, between spam, sshd-bruteforce attempts, and tons of other stuff.... the 'net has become such an annoying place these days. Every year this stuff seems to just get worse... *sigh* All this net-trash gives me a headache. What a waste of technology, resources, and bandwidth. > -- > Simon L.
