[linux-audio-user] [admin] spam handling on the linux-audio-* lists

hi everyone! just fyi, the amount of spam in the moderation queues has risen to such an extent that the server admin, douglas repetto of columbia university, has implemented an auto-clear function for the queues. that means: if your message is not forwarded to the list, it will be dead, gone and forgotten. this happens either if you are using a non-subscribed address to post (regardless of whether you are subscribed with another account, even if it's in the same domain, i.e. if j(a)example.com is legitimate, j(a)dork.example.com will bounce), or if mailman determines you are posting html. due to a misunderstanding, this auto-nuking has been active on linux-audio-announce as well for the past couple of days. so if you tried to get an announcement out, please resend - the old one went straight to the bit bucket. regards, jörn -- jörn nettingsmeier home://germany/45128 essen/lortzingstr. 11/ http://spunk.dnsalias.org phone://+49/201/491621 if you are a free (as in "free speech") software developer and you happen to be travelling near my home, drop me a line and come round for a free (as in "free beer") beer. :-D
