BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH It seems that no fileter will make us truly immune from SPAM, so for better or worse, here is my proposed spam-hunter (tm) clause: Purpose of the mailing list The primary purpose of this mailing list is the discussion of ongoing work to the Postgres database. Discussions of other databases, especially as they compare with Postgres are also 'on topic'. Any commercial postings including, but not limited to: Chain letters, Pyramid schemes, "Make Money Fast", direct marketing schemes, web site advertising, software advertising or any other type of advertising are considered unsolicited email (SPAM). These SPAM postings waste the time and resources of the volunteer Postgres developers. Therefore, in the interest of keeping the Postgres mailing list free SPAM, the Postgres organization will charge a fee of $50 per line for all such postings. In addition to the $50 per line, fees may be charged for expenses related to collecting the fee, including, but not limited to: postage, detective services and collection services. I voulenteer myself as an Internet PI. I don't think it makes much sense to pay someone up-front to track down a spammer. So what does everyone think? Ocie

Sounds like a plan to me...be interesting to see what happens :)
I think that 50$ per line is a bit out there. Maybe $0.10 per line *
number of people on the mailing list. Then we are charging for a
measurable/growing number of people.
I also think that you should run it by a lawyer for proofing.

As for the cost -- why don't we set it so that it comes out to $50 per line. What is $50 / number of subsribers? Ocie
