Hi Folks,

Below this message is a forward of a a message identifier from one I 
received just now.  I didn't bother to try to trace where it came from but 
will bet it is someone here who uses Yahoo for their email or another web 
based email program.

A couple of things.  If you use web based email, Yahoo, MSN, Mail.com, Gmail 
or any other than the email system on your personal computer, the be sure to 
SIGN OUT when you finish looking at your inbox, outbox or any thing related 
to that account.

If you don't sign out, then all the contacts in your account can be 
harvested, probably what happened here.

Another way to solve the problem would be to keep your email list on your 
computer in a word processing program or on another email program such as 
Thunderbird or Outlook (Express).  Then sign into the web base program and 
copy the address you want from your personal list on your computer and paste 
it in to TO field of the web based program.

Recently Yahoo fixed their system so you can set it to sign you out anytime 
you finish and leave the program.  I strongly suggest you find a solution as 
it can propagate spam and virii or malware.  Yahoo was on a crap list 
because they didn't provide that option so they changed it.  Also do not 
enter your mailbox from the Yahoo main site.  It will still leave the 
account open and you will have to close it.

So if you would, please find a solution so this doesn't happen, we would 
greatly appreciate your cooperation.

While I have the floor, I do want to compliment all of you on the 
discussions that have been ongoing, especially lately.  You people have made 
this the best group I have ever seen or worked with since I started 
computing in 1983.  Thanks guys and gals.
