   I have seen two  spams stopped and one that was a  spam go through in
the last 3-4  weeks.  Make that 2  got past.  I had one  on RAILROAD and
one on NODEINFO.  One was "DO ME NOW" and the other some sales advert.
 
   Conversely, I had 41 spam alert messages sent to me.  All were false.
5 came to me when the spam thing  was first put in, and 36 over 2-3 days
this past week.
 
   The  alerts are  all  for the  same list  (the  only one  gatewayed).
Please explain to me (I am sure it can be done) how I send these back to
the list with the original person  as the sender and without putting the
list in  editor mode (that is  not an option  here that I want  to use).
Also, how can I avoid them in  the future (NoSpam is not available where
my list is yet).
 
   I accept that the posts will  be seen twice on the bit.listserv side.
That's a tolerable pain at this point.
 
   I am happy that  something is being done, but not  happy about how it
is working out so far for my lists.
