[brent at mailstation.us: Bad whitelisting tool user.

[Joe(theWordy)Philbrook]

Hi [Matt?] I'm sort of new to the RedHat list. Though I signed up when I 
1st added RH9 to my multi-boot PC almost a year ago. But I'm afraid I WAS
spending more time with my Mandrake installation(s), and have only recently
started really looking at this list.  So I'm afraid I'll even have to take
Jeff's word that your name actually is "Matt" <sigh>. However As a digest
subscriber I noticed something about the digest's "From:" header that would
make it easier for "whitelisting tool users" like "brent at mailstation.us"
to stop annoying the lists contributers. (I did send an email to make sure
"brent" heard about the idea.) 

While I'm inclined to agree with Jeff about disabling list delivery to
that email until the problem is resolved. I'd like to suggest that the
list recommend the digest version to users of such "whitelisting tool"
users in any cases where whitelisting on the Reply-To: field isn't
possible... Though I do think it would be better if such tools were
smart enough to automatically detect "mailing list messages" and process
them differently.

By the way, I'd like to thank you ( and the list in general ) for being
there and for being a mailing list rather than a web page only. I'd like
to compliment who ever designed the digest format. It's so easy to use
with pine that I can't figure out why I waited so long to start being an
active list member. There sure seams to be an abundance of knowledge
being freely distributed here. THANKS ALL!

   At least I know my mouth is running, I just can't find the off button!
