Thomas,

What your asking me is to go to my employer and say "Hey I'm getting porno,
albeit unsolicited, on my email"...there's nothing like catching the
attention of the campus computer services folks by pointing out a problem
with porno! Which then brings in the issue of now that I've singled myself
out, they have a wonderful excuse to monitor my email to make sure that
there are no further offending emails.

No thanks....lets go back to the question I posed earlier today....

"How many posts per day/week/year do we get from listmembers who are
stranded on the road and email the list for help versus the number of
Spam/Smut posts we get per day/week/year on this list?"  I can only
remember no more than three or four strandees in the past year....I got
three or more spam posts from this list every two days or so.

One would think that the skills necessary to keep a 9 to 20 year old van on
the road would not prevent a list member from figuring out how to use
HOTMAIL while on the road to "call for help"......
