I think I got rid of the spamtification problems. This group is loosely moderated by moi, but sometimes the spammers get by. I try to check the post but I'm...
Just a suggestion - the way I run my lists, I moderate the first post of all new members. Spams seldom, if ever get through - those that do are unintentional...
