[obol] From the CBC Regional Editor: spam filters

[Mike Patterson]

The CBC season is approaching any many of you may be sending
out queries to CBC compilers or the Regional Editor.  If you
belong to a service that has an email address approval feature,
please make sure that you pre-approve the addresses before you
send a query.

On more than one occasion this year, I have attempted to answer
queries only receive a bounced message alert and instructions
on how to gain approval by filling out an application.  I get
way too many queries from people to be filling out address approval
requests and will not do so.  I don't think any compiler running
a CBC should have to out these forms, either.

If you belong to a service with one of these filters, please
be curtious and pre-approve any address to which you send a
CBC query.  Or be prepared to have your questions go unanswered.
