Well, I just discovered that my "apparent website in subject" filter was
too "big-three" centric. Now corrected. That's just a spammish factor,
but every bit counts.
For those who maintain MX pointers for antispam purposes, the following may
prove to be of potential use:
$ host -t MX linuxpro.co.za
linuxpro.co.za. mail is handled by 10 mail.linuxpro.co.za.
Disclaimer: I am not encouraging, nor do I condone, the abuse of the mail
hosts of legitimate concerns. The above host identification is provided
for those who may use that information to deal with spam.

Funny, but this whole internet thing is largely independant of any one
nation ('cepting the language-centricity of many resources, and well, since
this spam was sent in English, that seems not to apply any more to the spam
site than it does to procmail or most others).
Registration is a mere formality to prevent users abusing the site.
What a novel concept. Perhaps some clever people will register with
throwaway accounts and spam that site with this same announcement message.

OMG - no slackware? No SuSe? No Sendmail, SQL, FTP, SSH, SSL, Python,
AWK, sed, etc? These guys consider themselves a linux pro site? Hah.
Oh, and yea - no "mail filtering" - Procmail forum.
Social
Sport
Sex/Love
Politics
Environmental
Movies
Music
This whole list epitomizes what I head to a _linux_ support site for.
More resource will be added based on requests, by regular members.
Aww, the recipients of the spam can't ask for addidions such as
social/fetish forums? I'm crushed.
If you feel you are a Guru and would be willing to share your knowledge
and time, I'm looking for a mentor for each forum.
Oooh, yea, sign me up as the guru of the Sex forum. First, I'll start by
telling Mr. Machin where he can stuff his spam.
So whack thought to www.linuxpro.co.za and take advantage..
"whack thought" ? How about whack the spammer - somebody aught to whack
that turd upside the head with a 2x4. No, make it count - use a 4x6.
