NEW: Spam Discussion Bullitin Board

[Marc Perkel <ma...@perkel.com>]

I'm trying something new. I've started a spam discussion bulliten board 
system to people to post their koolest code and spam tricks. The site is at:

http://spam.ctyme.com

Right now it's open membership until people start spamming it and 
abusing it. Then I'll control access. The BSS has several section to 
discuss a wide range of spam related topics and it might be a better 
resource than just an email list - which although is archived - isn't 
well organized.

The idea here is to create a repository of antspam technology and 
anti-spam resources. So - I'm starting out inviting Exim Users and Spam 
Assassin Developers over to the forum. At the moment there's nothing 
much there - but I hope people will jump in and share code and tricks.

Feedback Appreciated.

Yup - but there are large, active mailing lists that already discuss these.

spam-l, spamtools etc (plus the sa-talk and other spamass lists) will have a
rather large amount of coverage on this, I guess you will find.

I'm sure the spammers are already on these lists. I'm just trying to 
organize the anti-spammers. It's not like there's anything secret about 
open source software.

IMO, sounds like you just gave spammers an easy way to tell what methods
people use and thus can possibly get around those measures.
