List Status: Worst is over?

The ITU-SG16 list shut down yesterday because of all the virus alerts. After
freeing the list today, several more alerts came in but they appear to be
ones that were queued, not new ones. I've changed some characteristics of
the list to stem the chances of this happening again. First, as Chip Sharp
pointed out, the Reply-To field will now point to the Sender (originator) of
the message, not the list. Also, for a temporary period, I will moderate the
list to insure more virus alerts and any inappropriate mail does not get
sent to the entire list.

Again, I apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience. If
anyone has other suggestions about managing the list, let me know directly.
I can gather the suggestions and we can all vote on them. Then we can
recount the votes. Then we can hand count the votes, but only from some
countries. Then we can go to court. Then, well, you get the idea.   :)

Thanks,
