I second the motion. |

That said however I would personally not be against having individuals |
4 |
personally banned or blacklisted or restricted or whatnot at the |
5 |
discretion of the proper authorities should they engage in misconduct. |
6 |
|
7 |
Such as proctors for example. |

I also would be ok with people being sanctioned on a separate basis if |
10 |
they should evade such a restriction. |
11 |
|
12 |
Blatant spammers are an obvious example of being worthy of restriction. |

All of the above said, however...I would not be against requiring |
15 |
messages posted to the list (or any list for that example) to be |
16 |
required to pass anti-spam measures, such as SPF or DKIM. |
17 |
|
18 |
In that note, I would also like to suggest that SPF/DKIM be used as a |
19 |
filter for messages being posted to the lists if they aren't already. |
