I know this has been the subject of discussion before but I was wondering something. Nearly all the emails I get from the list are prefixed with TMBG: in the subject line (or at least TMBG: appears somewhere in there, like after the RE: in replies). I assume, and I hope I do so correctly, that tmbg.org automatically adds that on before sending it off to everyone. I was wondering if that perhaps it was possible to have it not do that, yet require TMBG: to be in the subject line to forward the message on to the rest of the list. That way, if you are posting legitimately, you put it in your subject line (i.e. "TMBG: Spam") and it gets posted. But, if you are a spammer, you probably will just use a normal sublect line such as "Fine Quality Electronic Kives For Children And Industrial Rubber Manufacturing" and it would get filtered out because it wasn't prefixed with TMBG: and not recognized as legitimate. Does anyone think that would be effective? Also, when is Gigantic going to be shown in Salt Lake City?

This is possible, but if we do it this way everyone has to remember the rule, and it has to go into the welcome-new-subscriber message and the FAQ. Plus, the ever-popular "non-TMBG:" designation would also have to be accounted for. It would probably be easier and more to the point if we just closed the list to outside senders (in other words, only post messages that came from subscribed email addresses). It accomplishes the same thing, but without any special subject line tweaking. I'm all for this. Any dissenters?

(actually some of this spam isn't that bad compared to things i get from other much more boring groups... at least its amusing... until they send the same thing 40 times... no one wants your working gloves GUYWITHWEIRDASIANNAME... we should all write viruses and send them to these people. i have a friend who wrote one that makes a squirrel dance in the corner of your computer screen to Don't Let's Start [he doesnt use them it just amuses him]... or write to the Johns and tell them to write a song about spam and firehouses and tiffany lamps.) That would make for a much appreciated very TMBG-like song.

I would like this as well... at first I thought that's what was going to be implemented but I guess nothing really happened the last time we had that big votey thingy because people didn't firmly decide. So, yeah, I vote yes on this. Maybe if anyone has any objections they could make them known, or send an "aye" to some coordinator. That way we don't spam ourselves with simple agreements from each person *shrug* although I don't really mind that because unlike other spam, it doesn't force me to download a new character set.
