Dumb question #2006.
Since all of you know scripting, why can't you create scripts that look for key phrases(not just words) to filter SPAM.
Surely, this can be done.

Anyone doing it?

  Well brother Granroth (sorry, I couldn't resist the playing with the
Evangelist twist ;-)

  Well, met and thanks!

Thank you,  I'll go try that.

I was looking to upgrad an old distro, so it is likely that fishing
around for the RPM's will be a nightmere (and I cannot afford to spend
the time at the moment), so I think I'll go with the source option and
stuff all the binaries in something like /opt/kde2.2 or some such.  That
way I do not clobber my existing set up...

But this whole situation rases the problem that having a user base that
is several million strong (or however Linux and GNU is at this point) I
wonder if there is some way to set up the dependencies such that
multipul can be set up to coexist (and I mean really coexist).  Not
having spent much time thinking about it and just writing off the cuff,
I think this would require at least a general solution to the dynamic
library linkage that could deal with linking/loading against .so's of
specific revisions AND allow multipul older version to be able to
resolve...  Anyway I need to get to doing real work so catch ya'll
