Re: Update from the NANOG Communications Committee regarding recent off-topic posts
As a quick update, we've implemented some list settings last week to help to
keep spam off the list. New subscribers are moderated until we're comfortable with their posts. We rejected the idea of keyword based message filtering since not only is a lot of work to maintain, it's trivial to get around it if you really want to post banned words. Comments and suggestions are welcome. Matt Griswold, on behalf of the NANOG Communications Committee
I've always liked the idea found in xkcd.com/810 ;-).

On list spam has been minimal but off list cold call type emails have been mounting for several months Sent from my iPhone On 2012-07-30, at 5:29 PM, "Brian Dickson" <brian.peter.dickson@gmail.com
