[Wcurve-announce] I'm surprised at it

[Joseph Landman]

Please set the group to accepting posts from registered members only. 
It should help filter this stuff out.  The other problem is spoofing of
the email source, and there is little that can be done there (we have
seen quite a bit of that in recent months)

I am sorry about it getting through, our filters are kept up to date as
we can.  Not everything is tagged up-front, and new spam techniques are
designed to trick filters (as this one is).
