Hiya,
Well that's a problem for me too. I noticed today that on the KDE list
that *4* perfectly legitimate emails were being held for SPAM ratings
(given the low list traffic today that's about 40% of all legitimate
emails!!), but the reported threshold was *400*.
In any event, since almost half of all legitimate emails are being held,
IMHO the SPAM filter is in total overkill mode. Is this a separate
adjustment from the KDE.org addresses?
I supposed when mail coming to my kde.org address is bounced, there is
no way for me to know it and see what I missed like I can with the
mailing list. So please add me to the "rik" exception (or preferably
restore me to the 1000 threshold, not sure if you can do that on a
per-user basis), and I will handle SPAM filtering locally (I need it
anyway since I am the endpoint of over 20 active email addresses).
Thanks for your good intentions :-),
Dre
