This is somewhat off the subject, but, is impacting us. I see an increase of postings of "sex-vertisements" and other advertisements from various sources. The above "sex-vertisement" appeared on comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.announce. I seem to be receiving an increasing amount of advertisement e-mail addressed to me. Sometimes, I receive 10 copies of the same message, daily. Most of these seem to come from <someone>@savetrees.com. Most of these mail messages originators seem to be able to hide their ID well enough that I cannot send a reply. I have tried replying to "webmaster@<whatever>" and "root@<whatever" in an attempt to get someone to stop this, but, many times, that mail is returned as undeliverable. Looking at the source of mail thru savetrees.com, there is a reply address, abuse@savetrees.com. I get an automated response from there. But, it may do some good to ping them? Is there any way to determine a proper address to reply to these unsolicited and sometimes offensive messages?
