another spam attack?
I'm successfully using popsneaker to knock unwanted stuff off the POP server - nothing now gets through. Looking at today's log, I see six attempted messages each with the identical size of 4194303.97KB and each from a different 'sender' were rejected (on the grounds of size). Presumably many others will have seen the same or similar. Purely as a matter of interest, does anyone know what they represent? regards,john. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Monique, below are just two messages from my popsneaker log:- [snip logs] Oof. Hrm. I think I would be tempted at this point to call my mail provider and ask if they could look into it. It seems practically impossible that the messages could be that big, so I wonder if there isn't something in the emails that is confusing their server. -- monique Unless you need to share ultra-sensitive super-spy stuff with me, please don't email me directly.
