OK, so I see two solutions to this:
(1) start filtering - which I don't like since it will still download
them and at 125kB a time, that's a waste of bandwidth, and I don't
really want to get involved with one of those pop3-cleaner-filters.
(2) somehow find a way of disguising my email address on the newsgroup
without stopping the listserver from mailing me the traffic.
Any suggestions as to how to do 2 would be great.
Also I'd appreciate confirmation from a couple more people that they are
getting this virus traffic due to the newsgroup.
Thanks
Adam

I am wondering why, because I thought I could just delete this email
address and subscribe on another one, it's just this list that I use the

If I don't reply again, it's because I missed the mail amongst all the
Swen crap.
It might help a bit. I'm getting swen/gibe emails at the rate of
about 300/200 per day. I can only assume that this is because lots of
the spammers who've found my address on usenet have caught it.
Does anyone know more?
