Hmmsies.. $ cat /tmp/nanoglist | wc -l 2883 $ Ever since I subscribed to the list, I started to get spam. Which is strange, this email accounts gets (a) staff email, (b) nanog email. So a bit of snooping showed me that anyone can send the "who nanog" (or "which nanog", I cant remember which one, I just sent both :-) command to nanog@merit.edu and lo and behold, the subscriber list came back. So I'm asking the list admins to please disable the command, so spammers can't just grab a user list.. and also, for people who run large email lists, to consider doing the same. Adrian
