As previously mentioned on the reflector, Mailwasher (http://www.mailwasher.net) is a handy tool for quickly deleting the stuff (and viruses) without having to download it. It won't of course stop you getting it in the first place, and don't bother with its 'bounce' option, nearly all spam comes from fictitional addresses. There are no archives of this reflector, so it is unlikely it in itself is a source. The spammers get their addresses by all sorts of means including alphabet searches for valid addresses. You only seem to have to have an active email address to attract the stuff these days. 73 Dave G3YMC dsergeant@btinternet.com http://www.btinternet.com/~dsergeant
