Whomever talked about a script signing up and signing off the list to spam, your where right. The confirm with approval caught the spambot in action. And our friends(?) over at hotmail are where the spam source comes from. So, I am going to temp block all posting from hotmail.com to the list. I have contacted the abuse people at hotmail and got their nice form letter back (I hate these). So here it is in all caps. YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO POST TO THIS LIST IF YOU ARE USING HOTMAIL!! I'll leave the ban up until June 1st. -- Bob Tanner <tanner at real-time.com> | Phone : (952)943-8700 http://www.mn-linux.org | Fax : (952)943-8500 Key fingerprint = 6C E9 51 4F D5 3E 4C 66 62 A9 10 E5 35 85 39 D9
