To be fair to Phillip, the guy has spammed tese jobs across multiple
mailing lists multiple times. So I can understand peoples frustration.
Taking it out publicly on eachother isn't the way forward though.

Ok, so the hundreds of individuals on multiple mailing lists should
setup filters to avoid these mails? That's massively inefficient. How
about the original poster use the mailing list which is provided
_specifically_ for job posts? LinuxJobs on lug.org.uk.
I also note from Greater London LUG that the person seems to be
signing up under a different name to avoid such filters. That puts
paid to the idea of filtering. How many filters will you setup before
you get pissed off with one guy?

Personally I'd now also like to see JT moderated on _all_ mailing
lists. I think he's overstepped the bounds of what these (multiple)
lists are for.
Cheers,
Al.
