The list software on the PTG server does occasionally hold posts if it finds something questionable about them. The most common reasons for this are large attachments, messages with a large number of recipients, etc. When this happens, a member of the ECC does indeed take a look at the held post and either approve it or reject it. But we don't add anything to the subject line. So what I think happened here is that a CAUT subscriber has software that adds "[SPAM?? ...]" to the subject line of incoming messages, and that subscriber then replied to the message, posting the modified subject line back to everyone else. All I can say about software like that is: yuck. But anyway, that's most likely how the word SPAM got added to the thread. -andy Fred Sturm wrote: > Hi all, > I have noticed recently that a couple of my posts seem to have been > caught in a spam filter, then presumably checked by the electronic > communications committee and posted with [CAUT] [SPAM??] added to the > subject heading.
