[BLDG-SIM] the pic of today :)

[Gowri, Krishnan]

Abhijeet's suggestion of qualifying the members added to the mailing list can
avoid the scenario we just experienced.  In addition, I feel that every new
discussion thread should be approved and then open to the list for responses. I
am not sure of the administrative burden this would mean, but definitely
worthwhile to avoid irresponsible use of the mailing list.

Rather than manually scanning each mail.. it might be easier just to approve
new members through a moderator. That way pranksters would find it more
difficult to get through. (also I think, having a screen to enter the list
itself will act as a damper on the casual prankster like the one today)
Any thoughts?

Not a virus but simply (rude) junk mail.  The person who 
sent it subscribed to the mailing list, sent the 
advertisement, and unsubscribed all in the span of a few 
minutes.  I can't think of any way to avoid this problem 
other than act as a moderator for the list.  That would be 
a manual approval of all e-mails sent to the list prior to 
them being posted.  I would rather not do that unless it 
becomes more of a problem.  Opinions?
