New Spam Countermeasures

[Matt K]

Hi all,

Most of you won't notice this because Bruce in particular has been pretty good at zapping spam. But I've just finished some work that will automatically zap spam for us as we get it now so that should very much lighten the load off of Bruce.

Putting this announcement here mostly for prospective members. If you're seeing this, I'm pretty confident that I'm not being too aggressive on combating spam but just for your reference, as long as you aren't overtly spam, you'll pass through the filter no problem. Keep your first few posts in English (and especially not Russian & Ukranian...) and don't mention common things that spammers try to sell and you'll be fine.

PS. I think I'm caught up on most of my email but I haven't gone through most of August so if I owe you a response feel free to ping me again.
