Don't you hate that.... I used this address instead: Registrant: filetron l.l.c.

I take your point, but there can never be too many complaints. There was a 14 hour gap between the time the spam was done and we first heard anything from Garry. It has now been nearly two days and all we've heard is "sorry, we sent it to the wrong list by mistake". He's had more than enough time to clear this issue up. It is time to appeal to his providers. But as you said, there's no point in forwarding someone else's copy. -- Dan Langille pgpkey - finger dan@unixathome.org | http://unixathome.org/finger.php got any work? I'm looking for some.
