(thread broken on purpose).

1. Never reply to SPAM in the Debian MLs, just report it as SPAM using
   the web interface.

2. If you need to talk about spam, open a new thread (as that thread
   will not be spam, although it *might* be quite off-topic).

Doing it this way makes it easier/neater to clean up the archives.

Everyone has that responsibility.  Go to:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/recent

find the offending post, and click on the "Report as SPAM" button.

Also, please read this:
https://www.debian.org/MailingLists/

The stuff you want is towards the end of that page.

This is a long-time policy of most Debian MLs.
