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! --- Michael wrote: > Thanks for letting me know about this. > > On Tuesday 12 September 2006 21:16, Kurt Granroth > wrote: > > Nah, probably not.
