[WriteLog] Problem With Reflector EXPOSED!!!

[Doug Faunt N6TQS +1-510-655-8604]

There is a great way of filtering for messages from this reflector:
Whitelist messages with "[Writelog]" in the subject line.

Any competent software (and user) will do this.

   If you're really getting 1000 spam e-mails a day, it's time to get
   a new e-mail address. And time to stop clicking the "unsubscribe"
   link in the spam you do get...

   I don't have any issues whatsoever with the way the reflector works
   currently; I've been on the reflector for something like 5 years
   with the same e-mail address.

   Oh - and, even though I've had the same e-mail address for well
   over 6 years, I *still* get only 20 or so spams per day...
