Yes, I'd forgotten that the email-forum link is a tricky business.
Plus, it sounds like mailman can handle the situation much better in
any case. I think I'd be a pretty inefficient filter measured in
messages per hour ;-).
Speaking of the forums, given the lack of attention and use they
currently get, maybe it would be better to disable them altogether?
Their presence sort of implies that we watch them.

His ISP's filter must be impressive - Yahoo's gets a lot, but there are
some that fool it.
