I think I've told you before, but in case I didn't, or you are new to the
list, Listserv has been "spam aware" since the last release (May 95).
Thanks to that, you have been spared several dozen junk mailings since
that date. I mention it again now since it caught three more just this
past weekend. Unfortunately this doesn't apply to the newsgroup if the
spams arrive that way, but for those of you on the list, it works (well).

----------------------------Original message----------------------------
The following message was submitted by [log in to unmask] to the HP3000-L list at
UTCVM.UTC.EDU. It is being forwarded to you for verification because the
message has been identified as a possible "spam", that is, an advertisement or
other unsolicited material sent to large numbers of mailing lists with no
consideration for whether or not the material is appropriate for the lists it
is being sent to. A single "spam" can result in the delivery of millions of
unwanted e-mail messages worldwide, costing the victims and service providers a
total of several hundred thousand dollars. The cost to the spammer is usually
under five dollars. To be effective, a counter-measure must neutralize the spam
within the first five minutes. Consequently, there is no time for all the
LISTSERV servers to compare notes with each other before acting, and some
legitimate postings may be intercepted erroneously. If this is the case, simply
forward this message back to the list with an explanatory note.
