Michael, I thought about it, but it will not work. Remember in your
e-mail program or news reader there are some settings, one of them is
your e-mail address. So, to achieve the above, you have to edit these
settings each time you sent a message...Thats a bit to much work. But,
thanks for the idea.

I had in mind making a list, but the list will be formatted so that
you just have to block it, copy and then just paste in once into your
e-mail program(E-mail to:). I think this way it will be sent to the
whole list and it will 'cost' you just one e-mail message. I think
that it is little enough work and the result will be satisfying:
knowing that the spammer is pulling his hair out on the other end
because he is downloading forever on his messages...

Take care ;-)
