TBH I wasn't (very) seriously suggesting we institute such a block on
the project's mailing lists, only remarking that I was about ready
to do so for my own mail.  But I'm well known for having draconian

link spam, because more and more of that has been getting through
lately.  I'm not sure all of it has been from yahoo accounts.
