I'm sorry but are you seriously suggesting that it is OK for
agencies to post CV trolls to this mailing list?  "Just Hit Delete"
will *not* work if every IT recruitment agency in the UK is sending
one of those per week (or day).  Which is what *will* happen unless
it is clearly stated as unacceptable.

One already exists and there's loads of people on it.  It also
doesn't tolerate CV trolling expeditions.

Cheers,
Andy
