RE: discussion: should comp.dcom.cell-relay be moderated?

I totally agree with Ronald as I'm getting tired of spammers and
neo-nazis trying to get a life on the web. Maybe cell-relay can tinker a
kind of inbox assistent that gets rid of all mails containing the words
spammer, job offer and blacks or not containing the word ATM.

Would that be possible?
