[SOC] spam to arrl.net

Dunno about other users of arrl.net forwarding service, but I am inundated
with spam that that comes exclusively to that address.  I've been
accumulating a list of  message handling rules to delete  the ones whose
form is recognizable (e.g. text contains "horny") and a really large list of
blocked senders. Still, I get 4-6 pieces of crap per day this way.

The ARRL website says in effect "not my problem" and the SM has blown it
off.  Today, I phoned to renew QST subscription and suggested that the
forwarding service was ceasing to be a service.  The lady to whom I spoke
suggested autoforwarding this stuff to [email protected]  as the most
likely way to get attention.  I've just converted all my rules to do just
this and will forward all future spam.  If you get spam to
[email protected], recommend you do the same.  And you wonder why Yahoo
blocked them?
