ARRGGLL.... Putting this message into the spamcop database simply caused an automatic complaint mail to a lot of postmasters at the University of Tuebingen. This idiotic spamcop thing does not try to detect the original source and claims that the University of Tuebingen is originating the SPAM. PLEASE never do report SPAM to any of these "spamcop" sites. Please report it to coolo or me so that we can put the offender in our anti spam db. In case I get further complaints form postmasters I will remove the person who reported the SPAM to a "spamcop" site and if this does not help I will shut down email services which are open for anyone for posting. Limiting the posting permission to only subscribed members will be a burden for most of you. Remember: We opened up kde-devel@kde.org for your service not in order to beeing hassled by self appointed "cops" Yours, -- martin // Martin Konold, Stauffenbergstr. 107, 72074 Tuebingen, Germany // KDE: The most advanced GUI for a reliable OS.
