Jed, I see you use Gmail, have you checked the number of emails in your spam folder? (the spams you have received in the last month if you haven't deleted them manually). Mine contains more than 1400 spams, so maybe it would be more accurate to say that spam is less problematic because big email providers do a better job at blocking them. Not such a good job BTW. While checking my SPAM folder I found 3 Vortex posts in it, all 3 from Robin (mixent, why mixent BTW Robin?). I just marked them as non-spam but I, and maybe others, may have lost other posts this way. Could other Vortexians who also use Gmail check their Spam folders for such posts? E.g. in your search box, type: in:spam Vo I am curious to know if it happened to them too. Michel
