I am looking at the moderation tasks and it seems like there are already
a number of spam messages waiting there. Question I have is do i reject
the messages and discard them as well as add the sender to either the
reject or discard list?
How are we going to proceed with these emails?

Hi Everybody,
I am with Penguin Computing, who is hosting the beowulf mailing
list. Thank you for volunteering to share the burden of moderating the
list. Doug Eadline suggested that everybody agrees to this mission
statement as a common denominator:
"/As moderators we strive to preserve a focused and open discussion//
of HPC technical issues. We will support civil discourse and
disagreement, but reserve the right to moderate personal attacks
and inappropriate content of a non-technical nature. Mild commercial
promotion of projects and products is permissible if the topic has been
/
/suggested by prior non-commercial list conversations or queries./"
I would like to share the list administrator password with you. The
easiest and safest way to share is probably via SMS. If you could
please send me your cell phone numbers so that I can send you the
admin password. I promise ... I will delete every number as soon as I
have sent the password. No follow-up calls from Penguin sales ... :)
One issue all of you may want to look at its the topic of spam
filtering. Right now e-mail from unknown sources is held, and the
queue can quickly get pretty lengthy. Joe Landman offered to help with
installing a spam filter. Joe, please let me know if you need
any privileges beyond list admin for this.
Thanks again for volunteering
Arend
