A few weeks ago, I asked for opinions on whether or not we should "close" the list in an effort to eliminate SPAM messages. Closing the list means that non-subscribers cannot post to the list. The majority of respondents wanted to leave the list "open"...but they only beat out the "close the list" by a few votes. Based on that, I have changed the list policy so that when a non-subscriber posts to the list, Gerry will forward the mail message to me for approval before distributing it to the list. This will tighten things up just a little. If you post from e-mail address that is different that the one you subscribed with, expect a delay before your post goes out since I will need to approve it first. I tend to check the server 4-5 times a day, so the delay should be minimal.
