That's why I post usenet from aaaron@interlinx.bc.ca. I was doing this way before dcc though. I have my smtp server (Obtuse + local hacks) hooked so that mail to aaaron@interlinx.bc.ca automatically blacklists the From_, stopping spam to legitmate users. I don't have it hooked into dcc(proc) right now and it's usefulness in blocking From_ is diminishing as spammers randomize their From_s. There is also the occaisional reading impared user that does not read the blurb at the end of the message telling them not to respond by e-mail, or to response to "brian at intelrinx dot bc dot ca" if they want to e-mail. b. -- Brian J.
