Moderators note: lists.securityfocus.com vs. securityfocus.com

[Kelly Martin <kel () securityfocus com>]

I have noticed that many of the new threads on Security-Basics have been
addressed to security-basics () lists securityfocus com. Please note that
'lists.' is optional and not required. To save some typing, and to not
break many people's inbound filters, you can simply address your message
to security-basics () securityfocus com.

As a side note, if you posted a message on Friday and received many bounce
notifications over the weekend from one offending user on this list, I
have addressed the issue. I've not only removed the user/domain from the
list this morning, but emailed the offending postmaster. I received a
quick apology from the postmaster, apparently a trainee setup their
Exchange 2003 server last week and they did not test it properly. Yet
another reason to install software in a *lab environment* before it's put
on the big bad Internet. :)

Finally: once again, the never-ending battle against out-of-office replies
means that if I receive an out of office response from you, you will be
deleted from the list. This is for the benefit of everyone else.
