A Helpful Tip for Impatient Souls
Those wishing perhaps the ultimate in Cypherpunks ease-of-use and greatest peace of mind, may find it useful to simply delete everything that does NOT come from one of the following email addresses: tcmay@netcom.com frissell@panix.com sandfort@crl.com Additionally, you'll probably want to let through posts from Hal Finney, Eric Hughes, and Bruce Schneier, but I forgot their addresses off-hand and am much too lazy to look them up. :) If you're using the "ELM" mailer, you can do this by creating a file called filter-rules in your .elm directory, containing the following text (more or less): if (from contains "sandfort") then save "~/cypher" if (from contains "frissell") then save "~/cypher" if (from contains "tcmay") then save "~/cypher" if (to contains "cypherpunks") then delete Add additional addresses as needed, but be careful of excessive alliteration. ------------ To respond to the sender of this message, send mail to remailer@soda.berkeley.edu, starting your message with the following 8 lines: :: Response-Key: the-clipper-key ====Encrypted-Sender-Begin==== MI@```&]^&2?(E<U9BPG1]W7L;=*KH_R`E[:HLL5(1[#C?F1F@+XOR[*O4;Q* M5#7=J!((PXPB/`Z?E75=RY`'42E\')B98SJ<!]_D6):*2C`'_S7T,&Y7VY1R :GOR712QF!VS=527/-L\@>E6`)=?D_W1Y'5P` ====Encrypted-Sender-End====
I have found the following few procmail rules useful: ^TOcypherpunks-announce cypher-announce :2: ^TOcypherpunks@toad.com ^From:.*(tcmay@netcom.com|rjc@gnu.ai.mit.edu|frissell@panix.com|habs@warwick.com|hfinney@shell.portal.com|cfrye@ciis.mitre.org|whitaker@dpair.csd.sgi.com|hughes@ah.com|sameer@soda.berkeley.edu|ebrandt@jarthur.cs.hmc.edu|sandfort@crl.com|collins@newton.apple.com|lefty@apple.com|unicorn@access.digex.net|warlord@athena.mit.edu|gtoal@an-teallach.com|cdodhner@indirect.com|klbarrus@owlnet.rice.edu|nate@VIS.ColoState.EDU|hugh@toad.com|perry@imsi.com) cypher :: ^TOcypherpunks@toad.com noisy/cypher I haven't had any time to dip into noisy/cypher (well not much.. I'm dipping into it right now) lately so I'm probably missing some very valuable people. But I have found the preceding list to create a mailbox with essentially 90-95% signal. -- sameer Voice: 510-841-2014 Network Administrator Pager: 510-321-1014 Community ConneXion: The NEXUS-Berkeley Dialin: 510-841-0909 http://www.c2.org (or login as "guest") sameer@c2.org
