Hi Elaine,

this may be true for your knowing/realizing it. But OE automatically
connects to sites linked to an HTML mail. So, when your computer is
calling their link they can tell that you opened the mail, hence your
address is valid and worthwhile to receive more spam.

The Bat! does not open any links to the internet as yet (I hope it will
stay this way). So, with TB! you're safe in this respect. :)
