What's wrong with being a Hotmail user?

From: Volks Boxer (volksboxer@hotmail.com) | Date: 2002-08-11 20:47:16 UTC-04:00
Before I vote on the following.........:

"Should the list settings be changed to
moderate the first post from a new
subscriber?

(pros: mitigate a certain class of
low-volume spam, hotmail creators,
"vomit posters"; cons: more work, more
"members only vibe", moderator has to
judge whether something is a joke or
game-related content) "

......there's something I need to understand. What makes we Hotmail users
liable to "mitigation?" I admit to being fairly ignorant of many aspects
of computers and the internet. But I HAVE to use Web-based email, since I'm
in the boonies - no local access # for AOL, etc. - and I travel a lot.

So what happens to me if the majority votes yes?

I had to change from MountainScorpia to Volksboxer cuz for the life of me I
couldn't switch to digest, so I stopped using it and signed up for digest
mode as Volksboxer.
