I thought the point had been unequivocally made to your satisfaction that we can't tell by looking whether *you* sent it or whether the computer you were using sent it in your name. There were a large number of supposed christmas card emails about this xmas which *were* viruses. As I said in another post, I don't suffer from spam much anyway. Your theory is flawed anyway, as the assumption that the address I use to post to this list is the only one I've got; it isn't and it is not the one which gets most of the spam. -- Niall
