Guest guest Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 Hi Tony, I wholeheartedly support you banning spammers and commercial postings. After opening a post that mentioned getting a quick collefe degree that was posted on this group, I had 3 spam emails today offering a 2 week online degree. The post that individual put on oleader soup group must have had a data mining worm attached. Opening from my browser allowed it to feed its clients into my email folder (avoid the spam email folder). I support draconian measures regarding spammers. Dr. Goebel,tta Food fight?

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 What measures of torture do you suggest? I'm thinking along the lines of the Inquisition. I noticed last night that the private email I sent to the offending spammer was returned as undeliverable because the poster's stated email address was invalid, so yes this was a deliberate act. Needless to say, the poster is now banned. Unfortunately, like herpes and in-laws during the holidays, those types tend to return again and again. I fear that soon we will have to individually approve all posts. Not really such a bad thing - but it takes a good deal more work, and I am sometimes out of pocket for days at a time (weekends for example, as I am an outdoor nut who loves to camp, fish, or just enjoy nature). oleander soup , Michael Goebel <goebelchx wrote: > > Hi Tony, > I wholeheartedly support you banning spammers and commercial postings.
