Erin, "Bouncing" those messages back, while tempting, probably isn't a very good idea. Whoever originated them will then know they have a hit on valid email addresses, plus they will have **your** email address. This just leaves you wide open for more spam. I suggest setting up a filter in your email program to automatically delete them. You may want to base the filter on key words or subject line not sender's email address. Or just simply delete them as I keep doing. Hopefully the folks at Legacy have a way to eventually stop the spam. Has anyone checked Legacy's website to see if they have someone to report these fake emails to? Frequently companies have a special email address like [EMAIL PROTECTED] for these types of reports. I think that will be my next stop tonight. Terri
