According to Brandon Gillespie: > So I guess the question would be, do people find this rude, if done in > these forums? Keeping in mind that these forums are being routed to news? My personal point of view: I've decided to stop answering any article on Usenet coming from a mangled address (à la @foo.NOSPAMcom). I use mutt for mail which is pretty smart with mailing lists so this kind of mangling is less a hassle but I'd hate to see bad addresses. I'm already fed up with people doing this on Usenet. Having a proprely configured sendmail with filters and refusing to be a relay for anyone is IMO a much better solution than mangled addresses. procmail takes care of the rest. -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- FreeBSD: There are no limits -=- roberto@keltia.freenix.fr FreeBSD keltia.freenix.fr 3.0-CURRENT #29: Tue Aug 26 21:05:09 CEST 1997
