  Possible crawler-bot alert?
 
Hi, I just wanted to ask if there's any evidence we've been visited by a spambot lately--suddenly there's been an enormous spike in spam (two or three a day, up from one every six months) to my .msu.edu account, which I *only* use to post here and (...)

  RFC2047 encoded headers
 
RFC2047 is the standard way to encode non 7-bit characters in header fields since 1996. Headers which are not decoded look ugly, to say the least. Here are some examples: (URL) (Subject line) (URL) (From line) (URL) (From line) (URL) (Subject line) (...) (25 years ago, 31-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: .market Curators
 
(...) Thanks for that clarification. When I posted that I had *completely forgotten* that admin.curators had been set up and I forgot to check, to boot. (25 years ago, 31-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.admin.curators)
 
  Re: .market Curators
 
(...) Ideally, I like to see discussion amongst interested parties happen within the group in question. That is, assuming there's discussion about who will curate. Request messages sent to me privately would be appreciated. A post to admin.curators (...) (25 years ago, 31-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.admin.curators)

  Please change the BrickBay refs to BrickLink
 
Now that Dan has renamed BrickBay to BrickLink, please change the BrickBay references to read BrickLink. There are two that I noticed in a quick scan, one is on the web page for /market/buy-sell-trade and the other is in the heading text for (...) (25 years ago, 30-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: "I done it again..." - Sir Robin, Monty Python and the Holy Grail (Re: "It's not my fault!")
 
(...) Well, I just noticed these 3 posts: (URL) posted the 6784 version, but it was while slashdot was still having an effect, and got the "server unavailable" message. I wasn't sure if it posted, so I added a few words, and posted again, the 6785 (...) (25 years ago, 30-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: "I done it again..." - Sir Robin, Monty Python and the Holy Grail (Re: "It's not my fault!")
 
(...) Yeah, actually, I DID preview these, but only edited the second pair before posting...but I do that often enough without it posting twice, and these messages had the same content in each pair, not the original and edited versions... Matt (25 years ago, 30-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)

  "I done it again..." - Sir Robin, Monty Python and the Holy Grail (Re: "It's not my fault!")
 
(...) Same thing just happened again! Only seems to be happening to me (right now)... (URL) I doing something wrong? Is this a cookie issue? Should I log out and back in again? Matt (25 years ago, 30-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)
