fw1-gurus is low-volume, but I like that. It's low volume because it's moderated, so you don't get much rubbish coming through - most of what gets published is useful, relevant stuff.
I stopped subscribing to the Check Point list a while ago, because it just had so much rubbish on there. So many questions without basic details, where no effort had been made to resolve the problem.
Oh and there are archives out there for those mailing lists. |
Thanks for a good reply.
Perhaps I got unsubscribed from PhoneBoy's list a month or two ago.
I think we're rather lucky here in that the signal-to-noise ratio is so high and there's almost no garbage that I feel like deleting when I see it. I think we've got a really good culture here that's largely self-regulating.
I suspect that after dealing with Check Point for a while it's a huge relief to come to a site like this where we're just really trying to be helpful and giving each other a break. Oh, and it's both useful and free, which has to be a breath of fresh air for Check Point customers.
