I guess only one person needs to send this message; no one else has yet...
I can confirm that more than one person is seeing annoying commercial
messages sent via britdisc - I certainly get them too, about one a week;
they are spam in my inbox, usually from _fairly_ reputable sounding
companies, always with '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' in the 'from', 'to' or
'cc' and no other sign that they should have been addressed to me.
It would be a fair bet that Tim and me are not the only people seeing them.
For anyone who's planning to look into it: I don't have any copies to send
as I just delete them straight away - I could forward any more that I see to
anybody who cares. I agree with Tim, they are currently below the 'seriously
annoying' threshold.
