Lucky you. I get more than two pieces of spam an hour.

The list was closed until ig ot fed up of approving people's mail when
they sent it from the wrong address. Since then (some many months ago)
we've had three pieces of spam - one about a 'digital drug', one about
looking younger and this one about smoking.

Unfortunately this actually leaves us with a very high spam to posting
ratio.

I've turned on subscribers only posting and we'll see how it goes.
