Why are you > removing users every time a message bounces? That's > extremely abnormal. First, you didn't read my email. It wasn't "every bounce", it was every time your site generated a significant number of bounces all at once without "any sign of it ending any time soon." I've been doing this for more than 12 years, I know the difference between a bounce in response to SPAM and a bounce due to a site or email address being non-functional or busted. Feel free to keep defending yourself and ignoring what I have to say and I'll feel free to keep you on the ban list. When you run your own mailing lists, you can use whatever mailing list software you want and enforce whatever policies you want. Al Viro has weighed in on this topic before, perhaps he can give you a little bit insight on of his opinion on this matter which is shared by a large number of other linux-kernel users as well. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
