The filters which are in place on the List are written using Regular Expressionsâ, a data processing concept with which you may be familiar. If you can devise such a filter that will catch all or even most of the "obvious, Nigerian Scams", please forward it to me and I will be happy to implement it immediately. Now, this is not to say that such a filter is not possible. I have to admit I bear some fault because the first I knew of this message was when Jean Ernest sent a warning to the List. Normally, if I had seen the actual message first, I would have warned everyone. However the message never came to my Inbox, because the filters on my Gmail account had sent it to my SPAM folder. Perhaps I should find a Google moonlighter to whip up something. Since a warning had already been sent I saw no need for redundancy, but I did immediately remove the offending email address from the active subscribers list. -- Steve It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.-- Aristotle 384-322 BC Important FjordHorse List Links: Subscription Management: http://tinyurl.com/5msa7e FH-L Archives: http://tinyurl.com/rcepw FH_L Shirts: http://tinyurl.com/8yky94l
