Spammers still come in through requests, except for the obvious email
addresses.  It's best to ask for some sort of statement as a requirement for
acceptance into the email group.  You have to ban them immediately when they
inevitably slip through.

Alright, it looks like I can't add anyone as moderator, as only a moderator (and
not owner).  I sent a message to Yahoo asking for help.

I did erase the spammers and recent spam messages.  I can't change the settings
to make people have to ask for membership to avoid spammers.

Peace,

Abe
