Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, Something just struck me a minute ago as I received spam on an e-mail address I only used once to post a message on one of the freebsd majordomo mailing lists. My impression is that some e-mail-addresses-cd-rom-creating-company is subscribed to one or all of the list and collects e-mail addresses of people posting to the lost that way. Is there any easy way to get around this? I think I noticed that egroups.com strips part of the e-mail address so it becomes unusable. Currently I report any span at http://www.spamcop.net/ but I am pretty mich getting tired of receiving spam at all. Some one have any brilliant idea's???? Don't worry, be Kneppie!
