Hi all, We have recently noticed that many of the subscribers to various Wikimedia are using Boxbe services.
This creates lots of problem for the mailing lists since unwanted notifications are sent to the list from your id.
We would appreciate if we could put mails from *@lists.wikimedia.org to some kind of white list.
Thanks for the understanding.
Regards Tinu Cherian

Thank you, Tinu. It is indeed very frustrating. I have a filter that removes all such emails and trashes them - the only people affected are those that don't get our emails because we don't "approve" or "verify" ourselves.
Best,

Thanks Tinu for the guideline. I have added BoxBe to list spam filter, linkedIn invitations are still a problem as i havent figured out the way to handle. Ideally it can come from top down from lists perspective. I have raised a bug here[1]. But then best thing always, may better sense prevail in first place!
