has my system been compromised?

[KE7FEG]

yes, I almost fell for one spam thing in the spam
folder. I have to check it as idiot newbies to some of
the lists I sub to sometimes are tooooo lazy or too
new to follow the simple ways to unsub from
lists...AND don't read the sig file that tells them
where to go. So they declare the list as spam from
their yahoo email and my emails from that list wind up
in the spam folder.  I cannot trust them NOT to, so I
have to scroll down and check all the spam from and
subject lines..what a pita, but better than loosing
all email.

Even yours has wound up there sometime ago!
