well rick, if you read a bit of that guys email that you were responding to,
he did mention the users mail boxes were on another system housing user,
managers, removals, indicating that they do have a legitimate mail list and
implying by having a removal mailbox alone, they are at least attempting to
be legitimate and have an actaul opt-in mail list or at the very least a
list that you 'can' opt-out of.
and how many bugtraq ppl do you think there are that just get the condensed
bugtraq list daily, i wonder how many emails get shot out in one hour to
those?

Don
