Subject: [boost] [trac] The no-spam solution..

Just thought I'd point out something that at least the people who
receive the trac emails may have noticed... A lack of SPAM in the past
few days!
This the result of various tweaks to the SPAM filtering to the point
where it is almost impossible to post automated SPAM. And it's very hard
to post manual SPAM. But there is a drawback..
As a result of the tweaking it's also more likely that people will be
accosted by a CAPTCHA challenge. Usually this is enough to validate a
trac post. But there will be times when even the CAPTCHA is not enough
to overcome the preceived SPAMiness of the post. Feel free to post here
if you run into one of those cases. Although looking at the logs, I
haven't seen one in the past few days either.
Enjoy.. The SPAM free experience :-)
PS. And of course, if you find some old SPAM please point it out ASAP
for quick eradication.
