A major problem with such a list is the fact that uucp (as distributed)
isn't secure to start with, and undesireables can simple catch these
messages while spooled in /usr/spool/uucp (where they are readable and
removeable so the unix-security people won't see the "hole" and fix it).
Otherwise, the suggestion is a good one. Perhaps the first thing that
should go out on it is a fix to this security problem with uucp.
