Chuckle, I can see the headlines now Joanne, with film at 6.
Seriously, the only way I wouldn't use something that didn't require that sort
of close personal contact is because they a) won't call me cause I'm too old,
and b) cause they'd never let me carry it into the courtroom. Sometimes
modern society gets in the way of what really should be "darwinian"
results. :(

Re: Inappropriate use of E-Mail addresses
I can't. But I can offer sympathy. Welcome to the world of the "Joe Job."
It is the chief reason that I have pledged to NEVER EVER find in favor of
a spammer if I find myself on a jury with him as the plaintiff or defendant.
Besides, I'd probably jump over the jury box railing and gouge his eyes out
before the trial was over.

Everyone,
I have used spamassassin on our mail servers now for over 4 years and
have nothing but high praise for what it has done for us. However,
recently we have been hit by bounced e-mail that is related to the
inappropriate use of some of our e-mail addresses.
It appears that some spam artists with ip addresses that apparently
originate in Germany use a bogus names identified with one of our e-mail
addresses to send solicitations for pharmaceuticals to various e-mail
addresses. Some of these end up being undeliverable and then bounce
back to us.
Can anyone direct me to software or an agency that help me fight the
inappropriate use of our e-mail addresses in their spam.
Greg Ennis
