I think that is a bad idea. Many, many people still use yahoo.com accounts, and yahoo's behavior is certainly not bad enough to warrant punishing all of those people. pgsql-general alone has about 50 subscribers using yahoo accounts. Too big of a hammer for the OP's problem, IMO. Why not have single URL posts get thrown in the moderation queue? - -- Greg Sabino Mullane greg@turnstep.com PGP Key: 0x14964AC8 201303231051 http://biglumber.com/x/web?pk=2529DF6AB8F79407E94445B4BC9B906714964AC8 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iEYEAREDAAYFAlFNwbUACgkQvJuQZxSWSsjYnwCg/XFO2KgBFN8Z58u3k88HoKwI TlwAnjrAPmoQH1zkG5XeuytaTvO4r+Hs =NaRn -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Sent via pgsql-www mailing list (pgsql-www@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-www
