Hi Anton,

Thanks! I'm trying to filter by content, not by group or poster
when possible.

My main peering server (i2pn.org) sends only filtered messages, so yes,
a peer will not be sent messages identified as spam.

The main server for news clients, i2pn2.org, has a bit more
filtering, but all major spam filtering applies to the peering server
also.

If you'd like to peer, just let me know and we can get set up. My
email is retroguy@i2pn2.org. Peering info is here:

In view of the terrific amount and diversity of SPAM on

I was asking in behalf of the RBB (www.fidonet.fi) admin, to
verify my proposal for him to peer with your feed. I have
forwarded your reply to him. Thank you very much!
