 Hi Kevan. I hope you do not kill your archive.It is a thankless task and you
deserve kudos for undertaking it. I for one appreciate your efforts greatly,
and the alternative would result in increased mail as questions answered in
earlier threads were reposted. I also would have to get a bigger hard drive for
keepable posts which are numerous on this list. I don't think I have
ever received spam related to this mail-list. I did get some mined from the
CoCo list and classicmac list I believe but I unsubscribed to those a whle ago
for other reasons. Spam is a fact of life for anyone using the net. I use an
altered address for newsgroups however, which cut down considerably on the
spam I was receiving, but I still get some via other activities. I suspect even
Yahoo or Delphi lists etc., are not secure. Surely those who object to
archiving could use an altered address. Aren't there also means such as deja
news' "no archive" to achieve this ?

ciao larry
