The mailinglist is unmoderated, so right now it isn't possible to stop the spam (At least That is what Gerald told me!). I urge everyone concerned to mail w3 and tell them that these UCE:s annoys you and that w3 should _rapidly_ do something about this probem. You can mail Gerald Oskoboiny, <gerald@w3.org>, he is the postmaster at w3. > If enough of us "complain" about the junk > to the senders, maybe we can flood their mailboxes and "discourage" > further messages. The appropriate thing to do is to write a mail and complain to their domain postmaster. Do not flood anyone, that is just as bad as them spamming us in the first place. Very often the emails in the spam are fake and do not work or goes to someone who is innocent. I have nothing to do whith w3 (other than that i translate html4-docs to swedish :) so do not mail me about the UCE. I don't want to discuss this problem on the list (as it is _very_ off topic). But if you have any questions about this mail, i'll be glad to responce privately by email. Regards Fredrik Jonson pt97fjo@student.hk-r.se
