spam on the webobjects-newbies list
Today, some twit supposedly named Tony Drum posted three messages to the webobjects-newbies list I moderate at Yahoo! Groups about an iPlanet-focused web site.
As soon as I noticed this today I removed him from the list and banned his email address (a yahoo.com email address).
I sent this message to the Yahoo! Groups abuse department:
It is inappropriate to be sending spam to lists about products completely unrelated to the group. People do not subscribe to a -newbies list for general industry marketing messages to be broadcast to them.
I have removed and banned this user from the webobjects-newbies group.
If his actions fall outside of your Acceptable Use Policy I
suggest you take the appropriate action.
Thank you,
