Amazing Grace
Checking my email today after recently signing up for some of the Yahoo! Rev users mailing lists I found 131 spams although that mail server has been free from spam for years due to my careful deployment. Being on Yahoo in this case I had no choice but to divulge it. I am not blaming those Lists (or Richmond) for this - I expected it and luckily they all go directly into the bin. However, a solitary one got passed that system and nearly had me fooled for a few seconds. It was from a supposedly named REV SISTER GRACE, yes you've guessed, a Nigerian nun who, calmly blessing me, asked for my bank and personal identity info to trasfer my latest inheritance! I just can't decide if it was a coincidence or not but it certainly avoided Yahoo!s filters. All the best and watch out for this saintly soul, Barry -- Passa a Infostrada.

You don't have a special, lose-able e-address for spam-magnets? People shouldn't give those guys anything one wants to keep. You'll end up on a 2 billion addresses DVD.

Even the hotmail address I set up specifically to attract spam has been spam-free. Meanwhile yahoo even seems to let its own affiliates (eBay etc) spam its lists. -- -Mark Wieder [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
