I don't think this mailinglist is too public... I doubt any spam-watchers are monitoring it (although it did receive a few spam messages recently, didn't it?), at least that's one of the reasons people usually set up mailing lists instead of a more easy-to-use newsgroup. Posting your email address on web pages, fora or newsgroups though... bad, bad idea. I'm glad I've got another email-address now. But ofcourse I can't really know for sure, because until recently I've never had a spam-free email address (which I'll try to keep that way). And then it's hard to distinguish where which spam mail came from. A nice thing to try out, if you own a domain name, is to use different email addresses for everything. So for example [EMAIL PROTECTED] for ebay auctions, [EMAIL PROTECTED] for the msx mailinglist, and [EMAIL PROTECTED] for the newsgroup (assuming you own blech.nl)... Then you can at least see who or where the spam originated from and remind yourself never to give your email address to them ever again. ~Grauw -- For info, see http://www.stack.nl/~wynke/MSX/listinfo.html
