A few things: First, I've been on this list for YEARS - you think someone would have known who I was? I know I don't post that often, but I have posted a lot over the years, and Clint, you are one of the people who have helped me a lot. I would never try to spam someone on purpose! That's the whole idea of me getting this program to begin with. I was using NIS 2006 and it HAD an antispam filter for a long time, then they took it out. I wish they didn't. I have NIS 2007 and it doesn't have the spam filter. Do you have any suggestions on a better one? I have been looking and can't find one. I tried to add your email address to the allowed list on this antispam program (Comodo Antispam 2005) and it says you're already on the list. How do I add a whole list's email address without having to add people individually? I'm on another list that gets a LOT of email and I have to keep adding people individually. I get a lot of email, so I get a lot of spam. I'm not trying to pass spam on others, I'm trying to get rid of it. I use Outlook for my email because my Pocket PC synchronizes with it. If you can help me, please do, but it hurt when you suggested knocking me off the list - thanks a lot!

I'm inclined to agree with Hugh, sorry Lisa. I thought I answered your comment in my original post, but here it is again: "I DO NOT reply to these because these places blackmail/extort you into using them. Once they get your email address, they will then start sending YOU various BS (that's Spam)." Optonline.net is one of the worse USA ISP's as far as Spam goes. 2nd or 3rd maybe to Comcast, Cogencto and maybe Verizon. More UCE comes FROM these ISP's than any other. I have been forced to block more of the latter 3's IP addresses with my email filters than any other in the USA, that's how bad it is. I would tell your ISP you need a new email address from them, and if you were careful about your original address, TELL THEM this; it's been believed that these aforementioned ISP's actually SELL their members' email addresses to nefarious places. Isn't there a way you can add this list's email address to some whitelist? -Clint God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://www.OrpheusComputing.com http://www.ComputersCustomBuilt.com http://Computer-Hardware-Sales-Consumer-Electronics-Sales.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Hugh Vandervoort" Lisa, in your attempt to protect yourself, you're Spamming others and asking them to inconvenience themselves on your behalf. I suggest this is not a good solution. Imagine having to reply to hundreds of these emails for every list you're on. Not going to happen. In a similar situation with Ralph (I think it was Ralph) Marlene considered removing him from the list. You should figure out how to add these names yourself, or just get Thunderbird (http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/thunderbird/) which solves this problem without intruding on others' time. This type of SPAM protection is never going to work, so you might as well switch now. ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
