Re: [DMCForum] Is somebody screwing around?

Eh, I say don't worry about it.  I received one to
unsubscribe from the DML a few months ago.  Farrar got one
too, but it was in Portuguese.  As I understand it, spammers
collect e-mail addresses from Yahoo Groups and counterfeit
the sender's address to spoof others on the list to read the
spam to figure out what is going on.  If they spam an
unsubscribe address with your e-mail address appearing as
the sender then Yahoo sends you an unsubscribe confirmation.

A few weeks ago a major spammer faked my e-mail as sender,
and my mail box was filled with hundreds of bounced spams.

Walt    Tampa, Florida which is apparently ground zero for
Charlie.  Well at least I'm more inland than some of you.
