This is a *terrible* idea. Not only are most of the messages going to bounce, but the ones that don’t are spamming innocent people who’s email addresses where forged. Stop doing this. Now. Never ever *EVER* auto reply to spam. -- If there's a bustle in your hedgerow don't be alarmed now. _______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list MacOSX-talk@omnigroup.com http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
