In order to reduce the amount of SPAM, the lists admins have decided to vet all non-member mailings. With 3 vetters spanning 2 continents, the delay to non-member's posts should not be too great. Non-members will not receive emails indicating their submissions are being held for scrutiny, so hopefully, we will not scare them off. As with all pattern recognition machines, we are not perfect, so we may let though a few SPAM messages, and accidentally block a few valid emails. Such senders are unlikely to be notified, since we do not reply to spammers telling them that our list is available. So if you come across a colleague who complains that we didn't reply to their list email, please ask them to send it again. Any questions? Ian. |
