What would happen if, as list moderator, I just ignored all of the spam that comes in to the Laista list and all of the emails I get telling me I have spam, instead of signing into the management page every single day to delete them?
I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

I just ran into a period of about 10 minutes when every attempt to post or load a new page resulted in an "Operation timed out" message. Is the board undergoing unusually high traffic this weekend?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's fixed now.

Random question -- I get spams addressed to admin@b.org on a pretty regular basis, and just got one to filk@b.org. Is donations bcc'ed or what?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Jesse, I get the same thing, but in reverse, i.e., spam addressed to donations@b.org in the filk@b.org mailbox.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I get spam not obviously addressed to me all the time -- either ita@somewhere else or randomcrap@correctdomain.com. I think it's how they bundle their addresses.

Definitely. At my MIT account, I'm regularly getting spam addressed to nchomsky@mit.edu.
