I also got one of these -- ostensibly from Leslie Last -- but it really came from "dmh" at the IP address [63.60.42.245]. What dmh is doing is using old, but real, MapInfo-L messages to try and fool e-mail clients into filing these messages in your MapInfo-L folders. The idea is that you'll open the message not knowing it came from outside the MapInfo-L server. However, he's using really OLD MapInfo-L messages. These are from the days when we were using the csn.net server, so any message (after this one) that has [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] in it is junk and should be ignored.
The IP dmh is spewing from is owned by UUNET and being injected into the net via the server at mel.aone.net.au, but I don't know much more than that. - Bill Thoen Trey Pattillo wrote: > > hello all, > > I had 2 copies of an email tonight and also D.
