Re: weird emails

I don't think a spammer can glean our addresses from the list itself,
but remember: our posts often appear on the Web itself, or you've got
your own Web page; spammers' software can harvest those addresses like
that.

Someone on the list recommended MailWasher, a freebie download that I've
really liked using. You can delete spam before downloading it, and make
them think your address is no longer valid.

To block an address in Netscape: click on Edit, then Message Filters,
and make the appropropriate selections in that window.
