I second the motion to only accept mail from validated member addresses.
Martin has invested a lot of effort into screening the membership and it
seems to have been working well.

I too got 3 spam messages in the last few minutes which is a new
phenomenon from xansys for me.

Otherwise, the new server seems to be working well. Thanks for all the
effort to do the upgrades!

Jason,

I would recommend go back to a default-deny policy as soon as possible.
I think that was our original XANSYS policy to not allow non-member
addresses. The Bayesian filter method can be relatively slow under
current spamming techniques. I can speak from first-hand experience.
