I too am very concerned about the number of SPAM e-mails that pass through the reflector. I have personally been complaining to DKUUG for some time. ONe thing I have asked them to do is to insure that only list members can send to the list. In most cases this is enough to eliminate all but the most sophisticated SPAM. There are other places that the reflector could be moved to, including Yahoo E-Groups and MSN Communities. The later two both can be set up so that only list members can post and a moderator must approve all requests for membership. I participate in some Consortia activities and research projects that now use these free and "public" e-mail resources and we have had no problems with SPAM. > >Koreaki Fujimura > > >------------- >Koreaki Fujimura, > > (until 2001-03-31) > Intelligent Systems Division, Electrotechnical Laboratory, > 1-1-4, Umezono, Tsukuba, Ibaraki, 305-8568, Japan > Tel: +81 298 61 5181, Fax: +81 298 61 5989, E-mail: fujimura@etl.go.jp > > (from 2001-04-01) Intelligent Systems Institute, > National Institute of Advenced Industrial Science and Technology, > 1-1-4, Umezono, Tsukuba, Ibaraki, 305-8568, Japan > Tel: +81 298 61 5181, Fax: +81 298 61 xxxx, E-mail: k.fujimura@aist.go.jp > > > --------------------------------------------------------- Steve Carson http://www.huntel.com/~carson/ GSC Associates http://www.gscassociates.com/ 5272 Redman Road phone:+1-505-521-7399; fax:+1-505-521-9321 Las Cruces, NM 88011 USA e-mail: carson@gscassociates.com ---------------------------------------------------------
