I know of no case in which a sysop has been "arrested" merely because of allowing so-called "illegal traffic" that he or she didn't know about.
Some time back (maybe quite a long time ago, I forget) I heard rumors that a BBS that someone had uploaded child porn or some such to, without the sysop's knowledge, resulted in the sysop's arrest. Was that merely a rumor? Or is that a different category than the mail traffic you're commenting on? Doug
