[KYHAM] Spamming using Amateur Call signs

Fri, 07 Feb 2003 12:24:28 -0600

Hi Paul  et all....
Yep, me too,  I have been filing "stolen identity" reports with hotmail.com 
regularly too.
I get emails bounced back to me  that I didn't send.  So far all the 
products that have
bounced back have been fairly legit...  I fear finding my call pandering 
porn.  Hotmail
tells me that these messages (I copy and forward to them) are boot-legged  
and I already knew
that <smile>.   They do not carry the proper ID numbers  even to be 
hotmail.com
originated, but they still "appear" to be from me.
