Hi Catherine, I received this identical message, sh-t canned it immediately on the suspicion that it was some sleazy attempt to install spyware or a phone home cookie, or even a virus or trojan. Still dunno, wrote Mike D. a note about it. Then got Brooks' cautionary msg; now I read your comment about the message itself having a spam filter incorporated. Can you shed a little light on the topics for this computer semi-literate?? I don't doubt for a moment that they wish to enter me on their "list of legimate email domains" for less-than-legitimate purposes . . . . .
TIA,  Malcolm

Sorry, Apple. If you want to receive mail from a list take your spam filter off.
