Subject: RE: Tech: Avoiding spam blockers
Leo,

I "own" two lists at the university where I work. What that university person you hope to find will have to do, in this age of spam, is run a moderated list, or everyone will soon be swamped with spam that is sent to the list. As it is, I set it up so I receive anything that outside parties want to go to the list, and I don't forward it. Thus, I take the spam "hits" and spare everyone else. It isn't pretty, but that's the only way to do it so far. I set this up a couple of years ago or more, and it has paid off. Those who didn't are still scratching their heads trying to figure out what the problem is.
