Sigh... Can we clear this up for _real_?? ... Regardless of whether or not SORBS listings are "accurate" or not, or should or should not be included in SA, apparently some people cannot read, or are overly confused... ---------------------- Straight from the SORBS website: If you are listed in the Spam Database read the Spam Database FAQ, then and only then you have 2 options. Pay the fine, and get delisted. Argue that you shouldn't have to pay. Paying the fine will get you delisted very quickly (usually within 48 hours)... However, when donating to the Royal Childrens Hospital and sending in the receipt ensure you send in the receipt number (the actual receipt is not needed, only the number - this is usually prefixed 'IR'). Due to privacy laws and the fact SORBS is not part of or connected with the charity. Payment confirmations can only be verified when a receipt number is given along withe the payee's name. Arguing with a SORBS administrator about how you are not the person responsible, or how you just got the address (or any other excuse) will result in a 'boiler plate' reply. It will be blunt and usually impersonal, this may appear rude, but is it not meant to be, it is just meant to be efficient. Note: There are a few good reasons why you may get delisted without paying the fine. These will be dealt with by an admin personally. ------------------ So James - Like it says above, you really have two options. Quit complaining here and pay the AU Hospital and send sorbs the invoice/receipt, or perhaps if you approached the situation without downright rudeness (yes, you sound like a rude person to have to deal with based on your posts.. Sorry!), the admin would deal with you "personally", but frankly, if anyone there reads this list-serv, well.. all I can say is "good luck with that".. :\ ~Ciao jp
