NEVER EVER give someone your personal information over the internet or phone. I want to suggest to the listserver admin (again) that this list and others on vger.kernel.org be restricted so that you can only post to the list if you are a member. Anyone can read it, but you have to sign up to post to the list. At least then, the spammers/scammers have to go thru an extra step that can have their mail server blocked from posting on this list. I'm getting damn tired of getting 50-75 spams per day in my inbox and I don't even use my email address on websites to post. ----- Original Message ----- From: To: Sent: Sunday, August 11, 2002 8:44 PM Subject: The spam problem. > I know this is offtopic, but the spam problem is getting worse, could the linux-kernel mail guy/gal, do something, the nigerian scams are actually dangerous.. > > > - > 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/ > - 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/
