Stubby may or may not be an actual member -- and I think he is because a Google search of his email address indicates an interest in recycled lumber products, a Greenbuilding kind of thing.<div><br></div><div>But regardless of whether Stubby is a member "himself" or "herself", Stubby's email is now being automatically responded to by a DriveCarefully automated agent. And that's not good. </div>
<div><br></div><div>If I were the moderator, I think the prudent response would be to set Stubby's list account to "moderated", i.e. any posts or replies from Stubby go into a moderation queue and don't go out unless and until a human approves it.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Apparently DriveCarefully.com needs to partner with EmailAppropriately.com in order to have a more complete and constructive service. If I were launching a new web and phone communication service, like what DriveCarefully.com seems to want to do, the last thing I would want to do is launch with an auto-spam feature.</div>
