  • Polls don't seem to be filtered by the twit list

    From Nightfox@1:103/705 to Digital Man on Sat Aug 8 21:10:27 2020
    Hi DM,

    There's a name I have in my twit list, and I just saw a poll from that person appear on my BBS. It seems polls aren't blocked by the Synchronet twit list. Is that by design?

    If I am on your twitlist and poll your system to drop something off, even
    if I was able to poll the twitlist would prevent my post to you from ever showing up, right?

    Not by design. Just an oversight.

    Yes, I think that's correct.
