"First, someone who sends the same email to at least four mailing lists (freebsd, wine-devel, postgresql-hackers and ossi) is a spammer in my book. Replying to his email, especially to lists that are not relevant (i.e. - any but ossi) is helping him along." Heh, it the same way Bush acts like afghanistan.. "hey! you didn't help us stop this 'terrorist', then you are on his side!" .. why even bother to care.. one mail more in the mailbox doesn't hurt anyone unless it's containing alot of advertisment or other commersial junk.. Also, by complaining to all of the lists, you're helping the dude spamming too (same goes for this mail) since your mail wasn't really relevant to the FreeBSD-Stable list.. Regards, Jesper Wallin
