[newbie] Registered Linux User No.293302
Please do not send me any more newbie spam. As a registered user, Anne Wilson, perhaps you would be so kind as to ensure my privacy is not further invaded with unwanted Mandrake Newbie mail. I would appreciate some professionalism in your honouring an individual's right to be excluded from receiving unwanted mail (spam). - Original Message - From: Anne Wilson To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, October 04, 2003 2:16 AM Subject: Re: M J Pipkin [Fwd: Re: [newbie] Given Up (was Who uses AC97?)] On Friday 03 Oct 2003 9:15 pm, Heather/Femme wrote: On Fri, 03 Oct 2003 11:24:32 +0100 Margot [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Snark! I doubt if they will affect the list archives - although mine were diverted by mozilla filter into my newbie list folder, I think that was because they had [newbie] as part of the subject line - the messages were addressed to my email address, not to the list. Margot sylpheed has an option in its filters DO NOT RECEIVE from server essentially...won't even d/l the thing. One possible problem there is if you use a spam filtering proxy. Since sylpheed would be pulling from the proxy, the spam would remain there, and would build up. Anne -- Registered Linux User No.293302 Have you visited http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org yet?

How do _you_ define spam? By my definition, (unwanted e-mail, that was not ever requested, and has no value to the receiver) you have spammed the Mandrake newbie list. Since someone with your e-mail address has signed up and sent a confirmation that they signed up. it becomes the responsibility of the person at that e-mail address to correct the subscription. I know I wrote you a very nice letter explaining it when you first _spammed_ me with your auto reply. to paraphase yourself perhaps you would be so kind as to ensure my privacy and bandwidth is not further invaded with unwanted _your_ auto-responders Newbie mail. I would love to have everyone else that has responded to MJ Pipkin to post those responses on the OT list, since I know most of any response would have been sent direct to MJ, since his reply to address is set for it's self and not the lists. I wonder how everyone else handled this... ET Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
