I had a URL for the page with the >announcement but in my lack of foresight neglected to keep it :( True, but some of the volunteer Anti-Spammers have said they are not planning to turn their anti-spam filters back on again...they have got tired of being left by Net Access Providers to try to do all the filtering for Usenet and its newsgroups by the Net Access Providers. The bottom line is that the Net Access Providers really are the people with the means to kill both incoming and outgoing spam at their own access sites but too many leave the job to others. Meanwhile the Net's users just scream about it all to everyone and hope someone somewhere sometime will solve the problem real soon now. . . o . . _______________________ . * . . . / /| /_____________________//| . . |=====================| | . . | __________ | | . . | _ /_________/ | | * |(_ !~) /\ !\/! |.| | . * . | ) !~ /--\ ! ! :|.| | . . . | ~ / | . o | | | | ! |_________| | | . . . | \ /| | -Gregg Le Blanc- . | -______________- |/ . . .
