That is not correct. The only solution[1] is to set this list to
read-only. While Dave's list is a good idea in itself, most people will
come *here* for help first. And what they'll find is the Davids and
Harrys of this planet deliberately destroying a technical list by
spreading errors, lies, insults, and off topic shit.

The archives are already more or less dead. Whoever runs this list
should *never* have lifted the ban on Microsoft MUAs.

Footnotes:
[1] There are others, but it's a long way to the US. I encourage anyone
living near David to, well, fix this situation...
