50g

I changed this group to open membership. Before it was approval only.
We will see if there is a spam problem. If so, I will put it back.
There were a lot of people signing up, but never posting and I am
concerned they forgot/lost interest in the time it took to click
"approved".

That is what this list is for, feel more than free to ask any question,
however trivial you may feel it is. From this we all learn.

I hope for the best, but I've seen to many groups do this sort of thing. True, we don't get huge amounts of traffic here, but when something gets posted, it's worthy of reading. We'll probably be up to our "mode" keys in spam by this time next week.
Hang in there,

Don't stress, first sign of spam either myself or Tim will sort it out
promptly.

In the past we have only ever had one spam email, and that guy got
booted within a few days of sending it.
