Dear sirs,
First of all I want apologize from you & other people's receiving this
message for problem we caused to you.
About one month ago someone do bad for me & for you too, that bad man add
(subscribe ) my e-mail's addresses to Hundred's of news group Around the
world. I receive in usual days 40 messages for Business & I start found over
2000's messages in the morning & about 1000' messages in the rest of the
day.
All that e-mail comes from news groups. It was very difficult to manage and
found about 40 messages from 3000's messages all the day. It was very bad
time for me because I have to stay longer in office & more mistakes, delay
for response etc. all that days was hopping for a miracle come from my ISP
to stop that messages but for 15 days no success . A friend recommend me
to replay to that messages to UNSUBSCRIBE from the lists. For that reason
For 3 days we collect all the e-mail addresses comes from the newsgroups &
on Saturday 4th of march We got 695 e-mail addresses no Duplicate & we post
them a single word (unsbscribe with missing u) message to Unsubscribe. Next
day on Sunday I receive a call from the webmaster ask me about spaming some
peoples & I explain for him what we do on Saturday. On Monday I found some
peoples ask to stop sending them any Spam mails & some say they receive 32
e-mails from me. I don't know why they receive multi messages. The ISP stop

<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> now I have no any more messages from
newsgroups but you say that you still receiving the message of 4th of march,
