Paul, the Purple Turtle site has stopped registering new users due to
problems with SPAM, so Alex may have just been caught in the
crossfire and had his email address compromised.
The other big hole is that the last time I checked, the digest
archive displays all email addresses in whole.....though I don't
think even trolling software has the patience to wait for the
database to respond. :-)
>>it's a free email service, based in the UK.
>>I like it bc it is not bloated with advertising.
>>but it's not widely known in north america
