We have pretty much everything enabled on the lists, including Greylisting, but Greylisting doesn't help is someone sends the spam through 'legit channels' ... like most anti-spam software, they do have a finite lifetime before the spams just work around them ... press is one of the only lists we run, though, that doesn't restrict posters to it (ie. you don't have to be subscribed to post to it), so its easier for the stray spam to get through to the subscribers ... not sure why we don't have restrict_post set on it though ... JoshB and RobertT are both owners of the list, maybe they can comment ... ? ----- Marc G. Fournier Hub.Org Networking Services (http://www.hub.org) Email: scrappy@hub.org Yahoo!: yscrappy ICQ: 7615664
