Hello users, Well, it was bound to happen eventually. Hopefully, it will be an isolated incident and we can resume our spam-free list. It's done this well over the last year and a half, so I expect it to continue to do so. Below is a copy of the SPAM report I sent to alladvantage.com. They have been pretty good in the past about removing accounts for spammers. If he did get anyone to sign up under his referrer id, he's about to lose them all. **** Begin <snipped out the copy of the spam message and headers> I am the list owner and moderator of the The Bat! User's Discussion List (TBUDL) and The Bat! Beta Testers (TBBETA). A person using the alladvantage refid=GGO737 spammed both of my lists on 4 Jan 2000. This particularly irritated me, because for a message to be posted to either list, you must first subscribe to the lists, acknowledge your intent to subscribe in a replied message, and then read the subscription rules to get the actual list posting address. What I'm getting at here, is that this was very, very deliberate. I thank you very much for your time. **** End Leif Gregory -- TBUDL/TBBETA List Moderator ICQ 216395 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Web Site <http://www.pcwize.com> TBUDL FAQ <http://www.pcwize.com/thebat/faq.shtml> PGP Key ID: 0x8604279A (DH/DSS) Fingerprint: 9E16 4316 FA42 5DC6 EB1D D0ED D37A 858A 8604 279A Using The Bat! 1.38e under Windows 98 4.10 Build 2222 A on a Pentium III 500 MHz notebook with 128MB.
