IMHO, no, it is phishing.
I sent like 10 messages to the discuss and got one of these. I
didn't cc anyone or anything else. I am subscribed to the list,
and my post made it through.
Can a moderator (or anyone really) comment on this? It appears
that it might be a phishing scam.
I routinely ignore requests to go to someone's email box so that I
have the privilege of corresponding with them. If they want to
receive email from me, they will do the work of adding me to their
list of real emailers BEFORE they send it out. Asking someone else
to do your data entry for you as a condition of correspondence is,
IMHO, rude.
Thanks.
