RE: [alac] new ALS applicant North America

["Roberto Gaetano" <roberto@xxxxxxxxx>]

Actually, there have been two applications by email, received at
als@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx, that I was assuming all of us are currently registered
after the latest discussions on email list organization.
The first one is from June 19, to ALS list only, the second one from July
17, to ALS, copy Bruce and Jacob. The subject line of both clearly spells:
"Application from CLUE to be an ICANN ALS".

Something in our working procedures needs to be fixed, methinks.

In the meantime, I notice with pleasure that since August 1st the "Virus
intercepted" messages, polluting the ALS list by the hundreds, have stopped.
Or my filters started working?

Cheers,
Roberto Gaetano
