     Mine hasn't -- I'm pretty sure eGroups isn't to blame.  OTOH, bigfoot could

    be filtering out the spam for me.

     >how's the search for an alternative mailing list service going?

     Not well.  eGroups has a lot of very nice features which I can't easily

    replace.  SourceForge looks like the best alternative; does anyone object?

    If it's okay, I'll transfer everyone tomorrow night.

    I have Yahoo! mail, and I get almost no spam on the account I use for

    mailing lists (with several egroups accounts).
