Spam mailers

Mon Jul 29 07:48:34 UTC 2002

Hello, All.
	During the last several months I started to receive 5-7 spam e-mails 
containing viruses.
	According to the names of "sending" people in "From" part, I understand, that 
the spamer is subscribed to our list and sucks the addresses and names from 
it.

Is it possible to hide sender's name in RTEMS lists?

P.S. Among the "From:" senders are: Quality Quorum, Eric Vallete and some 
others.

OK.  I've removed the "From" header information from future postings,
which will remove the senders email address from the message when it is
sent out to the list.  This can be changed back if it negatively affects too
many of you.

I've seen lots of header forgeries lately from spammers.  They can
use just about anything for a From header.  I don't think they are
subscribed to the list, but could be getting the email addresses off
the message archive web pages. :(

I should have doen my homework before posting this here. It appears this 
is a well known problem with gdb and 2.96. There are some suggeste 
workarounds out there, but they are pretty messy. I tried upgrading my 
system to use gcc 3.1 and everything compiled fine and even seems to 
work! Has anyone had any experience with 3.1 and are there any known 
issues with using it to compile the tools?
