I remember when this was forbidden around here, and I think the rules should be enforced. One can not go around selectively deciding which portion of the rules apply to them, since this just creates chaos. If you don't like spam, there are options available to you. 1) Don't post to Usenet. 2) Fight back against the spammers by complaining to their providers. Burying your head in the sand doesn't help solve the problem. 3) Give procmail a try, with the correct filters, you never have to look at what you don't want to see again. Add something for "make money" or "money" and these emails will never appear again. Regards, -- [Mario1-] Mario1@PrimeNet.Com Mario1@Eskimo.Com http://www.eskimo.com/~mario1
