Russel and Jim,  If the "switch on" is an option, please consider.  So far,
everything the filter finds is appropriate to delete.  No need to pass it on.  I like the
option of having two accounts so I can receive at work, send at work, receive at home, and
send from home.
Other opinions always welcome.  Dumb ideas still ignored.

been that
the spam filter works well enough and restricting posts means
that people with multiple email accounts won't be able to post
except from the one account they are subscribed with.
But Jim can make the decision and affect the change since
he has full list admin priv.

 Bob et al,
The Barn has been upgraded (faster cpu, more memory).
Sytems have been rebuilt as they are discovered.
Spam tool is "detecting" the spam, but isn't disposing of
it.  My gues s is a simple toggle is required to get us
back on track.
Russ:  can you look into this?
Cheers,
Jim

 Can we stop forwarding all the spam to the mailing
list?
How about making this list subscriber only.  This would stop the spam.
Is there anybody that posts here that is not on the list?
