Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-britdisc@warwick.ac.uk Precedence: bulk Does anyone know if it is possible to filter out commercial messages from Britdisc? I guess the problem is identifying those messages, so is it possible to just make a convention, where say the word "ultimate" appears in a signiture or somewhere in the message, and those messages which have not got this word get filtered out? Incidently, I am not too bothered about it, and don't expect anyone to spend any time doing it. It would just be nice. Enough disclaimers. Tim RSB
