Hey,
All openSUSE lists (only a few exceptions) are subscribers only. We've tried last year for a couple of months to allow non-subscriber posts but simply couldn't catch all the spam as the content we receive is simply too diverse...

Isn't there a way to run SpamAssassin on the list? All of my list subscriptions go through SpamAssassin, and I don't recall ever seeing any of the opensuse posts being categorized by spam but have seen several coming from other lists categorized as such. And for the record, I don't have any opensuse lists on any white-lists -- nor am I so insecure or so sensitive as to have someone on a black list (but, that doesn't mean I read every list-based email, either). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Per Jessen wrote:

I also don't ban HTML email sent to me, though that can raise SA's spamminess score, I get quite a bit of HTML email, including ones sent to lists. Google-based-lists have no problem w/HTML email, since both there email and their list readers are HTML based. They don't seem to have any noticeable problems weeding out spam. But neither are most of there lists, mono-font based text-only either (lest there be any confusion, I don't mean monospaced font, though that is a smart default). That said, though, most google-based lists (maybe not all, not sure), do require a subscription to post, but I find I am able to post from both their web-based group interface, as well as my 'email' based T-bird. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Also, FWIW, I've seen more than one list-server *ask* me if I want to be sent a copy of my own emails (I usually choose yes, so _I_ can see my posting in list context), as well as a separate option to suppress list-based duplicates if the user's email is detected in the "To" or "Cc" fields. I usually choose no, as I, both, prefer to get personally-addressed copies in my personal email-box, as well as see the post in list-context where I usually have a list-centric email-box). -linda -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
