sudo-access list access and spam - sudo-discuss

3 Aug 2022

it seems that sudo-access is set to accept emails from non-members and is
forwarding spam which is bad.

https://sudoroom.org/lists/hyperkitty/list/access@sudoroom.org/2022/7/

Also I need to add someone to the list and i don't see how to do that.

approved this fucking SPAM message
 to the list because I was trying to approve a different message and I didn't
 look closely enough.

 I don't understand why the spam was waiting to be approved, I thought I told
 the system to discard that message and mark it as spam.

 this is bad because now our mailinglist has sent out a spam and will get
 negative reputation points.

 If it makes you feel any better, this is the hardest type of spam to
 reliably trap. It was sent by gmail through official google servers, so
 it passes all SPF / DKIM / sender reputation tests.

 I reported the message to google using their abuse form:

 Definitely just a single whack in a huge game of whack-a-mole, but it's
 better than nothing...
