Another potential place for spam-related messages to go when they're off-topic for nanog. ----- Forwarded message ----- SpamCon Foundation is pleased to announce a new, moderated, email discussion list for the many issues related to email spam. Relevant topics include: - what is spam? - the impact of spam on society (present and future) - how should we deal with the various forms of spam? - I have a spam-related dilemma. How should I deal with it? - discussion of the progression of spam, including new techniques used by spammers and new techniques for dealing with it, volume changes & style changes Topics that are not relevant include reports of specific spam runs or spammers (unless directly relevant to one of the above), and ad-hominem attacks or other verbal abuse. Unlike most other anti-spam lists, spamcon-general will be moderated to ensure that all relevant opinions are discussed in the most effective manner possible, and to prevent disruption and drifts from relevant topics. The moderators are all experts in this fairly specialized field, and have been active particpants in similar fora for years. The spamcon-general list is in no way intended to be specific to the efforts of SpamCon Foundation. Its founding moderators are Troy Rollo, Jeff Cole and J.D. Falk. For more information, to access the archives, or to join the list (or others), please visit: http://www.spamcon.org/directories/discussions.shtml Please feel free to forward this message as is appropriate. See you there! ----- End forwarded message ----- -- J.D. Falk "you can bomb the world to pieces, <jdfalk@cybernothing.org> but you can't bomb it into peace" -- Michael Franti
