[K3PZN-List] Change of e-mail address - 2nd notice (in case you missed it the first time)

Mon, 15 Mar 2004 11:53:03 -0800 (PST)

I'm not sure that the underscore helps. I have a
account that I use only for mailing list such as
[email protected] etc and only respond to info on
the list. Spam is slowly building on that list as on
the others but not as fast. My address there is
[email protected]. I think that not using the
address to have things sent to you is the best way to
prevent spam--but then if you don't get the messages
you want what's the point. Just use the spam filters
and put up with it. On  [email protected] I get about
200+ spam's a day. At least 90% go into the BULK mail
box that I just delete when I sign on, the other 10% I
mark as junk.
