Re: [pgsql-www] Spam filtering on the mailing lists

I just cleared out the AWL ... going through the stuff label'd as 'non-spam',
am finding alot of stuff scoring a bit low due to the From being in AWL ...

Does anyone know if there is some 'rule' that return mail about 'Undeliverable'
has to be in English? I'm finding some that *look* like that sort of thing,
but in other languages / character sets, and wonder if there is an RFC that is
meant to direct such stuff 'in English'? (ie. should I be marking that stuff
as spam, since *I* can't confirm it isn't?)
