Hi all,

With the increase of spam it is only fair and reasonable that people are addressing
this via technological mean, including filters, black lists and white lists.

However, white lists that require human responses/authentication provide particular
challenges to mailing lists with the bounces that they generate and it can be somewhat
problematic for participants who are responding to conversations to jump through a
number of hoops to respond to a topic, especially when the bounces come from people
not listed in the mail addresses (but are part of the mailing list as a whole)

Please could people make sure they are configuring their white lists appropriately
when joining the dev-crypto and announce-crypto mailing lists so that mails delivered
via these lists are handled appropriately.

Cheers,
	-- jon
