[Nasm-users] Talk, don't spam

[Frank K. <fbk...@ve...>]

Hi List,

As you may have noticed, the spammers have found this list! :(

As "owner", it is my responsibility to do something about this. Poking 
around the delightful SF/mailman interface, I'm not having a lot of 
luck. Found the way to "exclude" messages from the public archive, but 
it's tedious as hell and they don't really go away. I did a few messages 
and got sick of it... I may get back to it...

I also found a way to subject this list to "emergency moderation", which 
I have done. I don't know if that'll help - this is kind of a "test 
message" to see what it does...

Since this list isn't used much, I considered "killing" it entirely... 
but apparently I can't do that. "Once open source, always open source" I 
suppose spammers got "freedom" too... sigh...

An alternative would be to drown the bastards out with chatter about 
Nasm... not much hope of *that*! :)

Hopefully, I can find some way to deal with it. If anyone has code for a 
virus that'll make a spammer's keyboard melt into their lap, that might 
help. (just joking - please *don't* post any malware!)

My apologies for the rude noises.

Best,
Frank
