[Yaesu] SPAM?

Sat, 26 Oct 2002 15:13:24 -0500

Yeah, I know how it works and what it's for.

It just boggles my mind that someone would subscribe to a list and then
force the people who post to that list to register with his spam
blocker. What a bunch of BS. I wonder if he EVER sees any posts made
here!!!! IMHO, he and his spam blocker are gulity of sending me spam
every time I receive one of their "you must register" messages.

Maybe the list owner will be so kind as to take that person (WB7ACV) off
the list or at least contact him and ask him to stop what he and his
spam blocker are doing to those of us who post here.

Rant mode off.
