Since [email protected] generally forwards somewhere useful, it's not the whois file that matters. I've gotten similar spam (from another company) that got my email off github. I think recruiter spam is just one of those things to ignore. At least it's *topical* unlike the email about winning a million pounds in a British lottery. -- David
