Re: [cobalt-users] Open Mailing List

My problem is slightly different.  I want to install a more powerful majordomo
*and* prevent "localized spam relay" with the majordomo already on my Qube2
system.

Let me explain.  If you do a "lists" on my server, you'll get a list of each
mailing group.  You can then spam each list -- and the Qube2 will happily send
your spam to every member on the list.

It only remains for a spammer to (1) scour the cobalt-users archive for domain
names, (2) fire off a "lists" command to each domain, then (3) spam every
mailing list on every box.  Vwallah!  Qubes & RaQs relay the spam locally --
and the spammer doesn't need to know individual email addresses.

Someone will make a client out of me if they can disable this feature on my
Qube2.
