Believe me I understand your pain. Been there done that. However, |
| 6 |
dropping mail is never a good idea. You are mucking with the |
| 7 |
dependebility of the email. I would never be able to trust my gentoo |
| 8 |
mail if you start dropping spammy mails. There will always be false |
| 9 |
positives. I suggest: |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
- Stop forwarding mail. Have devs pop their mails to whatever account |
| 12 |
they like. I believe gmail -biggest complainer?- provides this |
| 13 |
option. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
- If the above option is not OK for whatever reason, at least let us |
| 16 |
opt-out of the proposed policy of dropping mails provided we do not |
| 17 |
forward our emails. |
