Not surprising. I haven't let LinkedIn know about the existence of my Facebook account or any webmail account. And I use an email client that doesn't let LinkedIn (or anything else) scavenge its address book. My own interesting experience with LinkedIn came from receiving emails (sent to the address I registered fir my LinkedIn account) requesting that I connect with someone... but when I logged into LinkedIn I found no such request there. Seems like obvious spam with a forged address, right? Nope. I checked the email headers for the suspect messages and found the emails came from the official LinkedIn servers. I never got a satisfactory answer (or indeed, any reply at all) from LinkedIn and found several other users experiencing the same issue with equal puzzlement. After about a year it stopped so I think it was a glitch in their system. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
