Yes, BUT one lousy SPAM can degenerate into another 5 or 10 more
messages from your subscribers back to you and/or your list,
and/or OTHER lists complaining about the message!
Then if LISTSERV SPAM detection software kicks-in AGAINST your
users who replied back to multiple lists ... well, you get the
picture. There are a number of 2nd and 3rd order effects.
File this under "a word to the wise ..."
