[Yaesu] SPAM?

Sat, 26 Oct 2002 08:56:41 -0500

Jim,

I received it for a particular person who is on the list.  The list takes
your message you sent to "[email protected]" and then "re-directs" or
"reflects" it out to everyone who subscribes.  The mail effectively looks
like it came from you.  However, the person who receives the mail does not
have their e-mail address listed in the mail's headers as the "To:"
recipient.

So this person's ISP thinks it might be spam.  So the mail gets rejected.

It's not the Yaesu list that is doing it.  It's this one person with the
"quik" e-mail address or whatever it is.  He probably wonders why he's not
getting any Yaesu mail.  I'd say who it is, but I deleted my copy and I
don't see his e-mail listed below, but it looks like the callsign of the guy
might be wb7acv.

73,
