Re: [Haskell-cafe] hello Haskell

Blocking/unsubscribing people based on their email provider seems... sort of impolite or unwelcoming. A greylist could work. Given the relatively low volume of spam, my vote is for the original suggestion of first-message-moderated, with the ability to put an address back on moderation if their account is hacked.

Maybe its time to moderate all newcomers to this list, at least until they post one non-spam message to the list.

Just for the record, not a newcomer, and has non-spam messages, e.g.

http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/haskell-cafe/2010-May/077871.html http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/haskell-cafe/2010-May/078054.html

There was a recent hotmail exploit, with people reporting their account sent spam, see eg:

https://plus.google.com/117020778736538274606/posts/4yMP7iDshCf

I'd be in favor of graylisting or unsubscribing anyone who uses hotmail.

If you need volunteers to do this moderation I'll stick my hand up.
