I received this spam about five times, from four different ISPs. Three out of four acknowledged my complaint messages and removed the user, or informed me that the user had already been removed. Although I did get some fairly strange automated replies. out of ibm.net. I think posting to news is probably far more dangerous. Luckily, your favourite mail sorter can also sort out and kill spam. I use sortmail here on this Solaris machine at uni, because procmail isn't installed and I've already filled my disk quota with other binaries. sortmail is only 20k odd, works quite well, and comes from comp.sources.unix or .misc or something. hamish -- Hamish Moffatt, StudIEAust [EMAIL PROTECTED] Student, computer science & computer systems engineering. 3rd year, RMIT. http://hamish.home.ml.org/ (PGP key here) CPOM: [**** ] 47% The opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth. --Bohr -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
