spam.

and legit.

how's that work?

sick stuff.

http://www.optinnews.com/news/showart.asp?DB=NewsTable&ID=745

i think (i didn't see this, so i either filtered it, or it never came
here)

it could be one of two things. (i think the latter)

it's an addin that goes with majordomo (listserv software)

a lot of spammers will use somethin glike this to keep email addressed
current.

so it looks like the otr list manager comiled this in, or bought
asubscription of freshaddress cos he was sick of bounces or something
along those lines. so it looks legit, but i'm suspicious. just cos i hate
things like this. did you register with them, or did they just send you a
note? (i ask cos i see the email address and a ******).

it also looks like the otr mail list could've been sold (??) snarfed or
otherwise snagged.

i know i've seen enough spammers get on here and spam people. so it's
possible.

rhk.

a simple validator with known spammers would elmiate this type of thing
from the list....

ignore it. it's stupid.
