SPAM Filters

Like all of you, I'm concerned about the increasing volume of Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE or SPAM). I am therefore sympathetic with those of you who are installing SPAM filters on your mail servers. A couple of recent incidents involving mis-configured filters have prompted me to establish this page to spell out what I will do when these filters bounce list postings.

When your SPAM filter bounces/rejects list mail, I will:

  1. immediately turn off delivery to you from all Shorewall lists to which you subscribe.
  2. try to send you an email from a source other than shorewall.net

When you have corrected the problem, please let me know and I will re-enable delivery (or you can reenable delivery yourself).
