Without making this list or a user moderated there is no way to prevent
a subscriber from replying sending a message to the list to continue the
endless conversation. We do not have the people to moderate all the
messages. I and others have tried to tell all of you that the list is
not at fault but the explanations are being ignored.

With all due respect, I really wish Legacy support would put an end to
this endless conversation. I don't know how much clearer it can be made
that these messages DID NOT come from the Legacy mail server. The true
s*p*a*m coming from the Legacy server is from the people who feel they
need to keep this thread going (this poster included).

Hi
One thing that most people do not know of is that
ANYONE can send an email with totally fake sender addresses if they
are prepared to write a simple piece of code with an built in SMTP
interface. I know because I did it to prove that it would work. It is
one of the methods that the spammers do when sending their fake
emails, plus lifting the targets from the user’s own system.
We really do need a system like DMARC enforcement in
place for all emails to verify that the email actually came from the
alleged sender.

This is the first I've heard of it - I've not received any spam beyond
the "normal" ones I get each week.
Someone's email account may have been hijacked. One of the latest
tricks is to hijack an account and pick an email address from the
address book. then they send the email using the person's name and the
stolen email address, so they really don't match.

I wonder why nothing was said. It is just annoying, I had 1009 then I
got spammed with them again while I was removing them and got about
500 more, so they are still out there. I had to do them one by one,
as I had e-mail in between them. I have now marked them spam and I
have 916 in my spam folder LOL!

Great silence from Legacy regarding this breach of THEIR address, though.

You better start changing your PW for many of your accounts.

Yeah, riiiiight. Like I'm going to click on a suspect link in an email.

Over the last few days, I have been getting lots of e-mails, apparently
from legacyusergroup, all junk mail. In a period of just three minutes
today, I have received 945! They clearly have nothing to do with Legacy
or legacy groups. Has anyone else been experiencing this or similar? The
address is one I only use for reputable mailing lists like this, so I
wonder if there has been some kind of compromising going on, and felt it
might be worth mentioning here.
Kind regards,
Alex
