Re: [ecc-public-discuss] Dealing with spam

Thanks for that.  I don't actually know how I got on this e mail list as this was the first l;oad of e mails I have received from it...
I also didn't know there was a different list although was on it for a while when there were a few e mails about Hamilton Hall and I was astounded and absolutely gobsmacked at the support and praise offered for myself, Hamilton Hall and what I am doing here, by the membership. It brought a tear to my eye...
 
Thanks for enlightening me.
 
If you'd like a weekend with a friend for B&B as my guest when we are not quite so busy,  it would be my pleasure...
Have you ever been to Bournemouth ?
 
In Peace

Hi John...
I think maybe you are not aware of the nature of this group?
It is aptly named "ECC-public-discuss"
With an emphasis on the 'public'
This is the group we invite anyone - the general public -  to join to find out about ECC, what it is, how it works.
And that's one of the reasons it was left open for anyone to join.
We also made sure a few ECC members were also subscribed to help with any questions asked and chat to the 'public' who decided to join.
I'm amazed we haven't had loads of spamming in the past for that very reason.
 
So I'm not too sure if we shouldn't just keep a close eye on spammers & then like, and leave it open to the public.
 
Our ECC members group has around 300 members John, and no spammers. That is for people who have attended ECC events and so are aware of ECC and how it works. That is where - in your words - our intimate and 'in house' e mails  - are sent, not here.
 
Hope this helps clear it up for you.
 
Dave.

Thankyou for sorting out the dreaded spam mailings we were receiving.  I wasn't aware that membership of this e mail group was open to everyone who wanted to join without moderator intervention or being a member of the ECC itself.  That's what I had always been told and was for our protection against such things.  Do we want just anyone reading our intimate and 'in house' e mails sent through this group or is it to be kept private and 'in house'  just for the membership of ECC ?
 
I'm so glad not to be receiving thoe dreaded e mails any more.

Hi All

Sorry about the recent spate of spam.

I think it was clear from the group description that the multiple
advertising being sent was not within what the group was intended for
and I have removed the relevant member.

In order to make it easier for people to join the group membership was
previously set to Open (anyone can join); I have changed it so that
membership now requires approval.
