RE: someone shortcircuiting this list to razor-report?

[Frederico Costa]

Hi all ...

Well I am on for the move of this list for a more non Spam alike place.

Lately it has been crazy, and has I am getting my mails through a
mobile, is no fun at all...

I will suggest egroups, or named now yahoo groups.
I am member of some of the groups, and they are very clean regarding
Spam

What do you think ?

Frederico
