Re: [OT] [Users] Two cents about spam and people not RTFM'ing

Sorry for replying to this OT thread, but I have the same opinion like Matthew Sodano, Andy Eaton and Philipp Snizek. Of course, other lists don't have so much spam and virii being posted on them, but here you can train your bayes or whatever spam database for free!! And what Sam already mentioned often enough is that there's the moderated version of this list!! But the problem is people saying "f*** your list policy, why am I getting so much spam??" Well, shouldn't network and system administrators be capable of setting up a spam & virus filter?? just think about it...but don't let this some kind of a religious war!! And another fact is, despite the fact that there's much spam on this list, if you need help setting up freeswan, you get it from Sam & Co., want to say if you need help with freeswan, you'll most probably get very competent help here, and that's the point!! Thanks to those guys!!!

just my 2 eurocent ;-)
