(Speaking of spam, first thing I did when I sat down at the machine this afternoon was spend upwards of 45 minutes trying to find a place to report a somewhat suspicious-sounding message allegedly from Yahoo!. They not just them, but they are really bad about it make it ridiculously hard to contact cusstomer¹ service. Unfortunately, when AT&T started re-assimilating all the Baby Bells created by the breakup back in the 70s they decided to get Yahoo! to handle all their e-mail accounts, so when a message arrives allegedly from Yahoo! claiming that some update action is necessary or all accounts will be closed it can't just be ignored and trashed as spam . . . :()

Crap - no. I didn't realize they managed to spam the whole list. I'm used to getting spam as an admin, but I think this is the first time somebody managed to hit the whole list.
