Near criminal, in my opinion. Anyone who tries to respond to them usually finds that the return address does not exist. Philip Yarra (pjy@nunkeen.apana.org.au)

Then again, I'm sure savetrees.com has beaten us to it. I feel like using up a few trees just to set fire to their building! Damned if I'm going to add a spam filter, though.

With all the spam I get offering to sell me the mailing list the spammers used for sending me spam, I figure it's already too late for a spam filter.
