Hi,
Just a note from me, your friendly list administrator.
As you may or may not have noticed, the list has been spammed twice in the last
few weeks with advertisements. Spamming has become a ever growing problem on the
Internet and more security and preventative measures are necessary to protect
this list and the server.
In order to preven spam from coming to the list, I have modified the
configuration of the CTPP list to prevent mail from unknown users from being
forwarded to the list. You must be subscribed to the list to be able to mail to
the list.
What this means is that you must mail from the same email address that you are
subscribed from. So if you're subscribed from someaddress(a)yahoomail.com, you
must send any messages to the list from that address.
One small problem with this is that the address you email from must appear the
same in the file I am using the store the email address subscribed to the list.
So it is possible that if you send mail from SomeAddress(a)yahoomail.com and I
have someaddress(a)yahoomail.com, the mail will not get forwarded to the list.
This is not that big of a problem because all rejected email to the list will be
forwarded to me and I can forward valid email to the list.
If you have any questions about this new change or any other questions in
general please feel free to contact me.
If you have any problems with the list, also feel free to contact me.
My email address is chrisp(a)chrispy.net (chrispy(a)chrispy.net works too).
Thanks,
Chris
