[Linux-aus] Spam :: Linux Device

I'm afraid that nothing you presented makes clear your skill/tech
background - or even what your name is.
That you haven't even answered these questions when directly asked erodes
any good-will you may have had.
I had hoped to give you the benefit of the doubt (assuming english as
second language) but your avoidance of even basic questions and inability
to provide anything backing your words leads me to no longer hold out hope
for that.
Please remember that you are talking to a group of people who hold linux
and open source as greatly important.  There are a large number of people
with high technical skills and so would expect interactions on such a core
topic (email privacy, control and handling is very important) to be done at
such a level as to dissuade any fears.
If you ever decide to come forward with a proper proposal then people may
indeed be interested (maybe not for linux australia lists - but perhaps
others) - but based on what you have provided (or not provided) so far -
the level of evidence would need to be greatly increased before anyone is
likely to be interested.

Regards,
  Chris
