 To those of you who are replying to that last bit of spam we all got from
the maillist, it won't do any good to try and remove yourself by replying -
you are simply sending a message to the maillist yourselves.  It also
doesn't do any good to reply directly to the spammer, as the message was
not sent to you but to the iac maillist, which in turn forwarded it to us. 
I tried this with the last bit of spam we got, before I realized what was
happening.  Perhaps the administrator of the maillist can do this for us.
The only other thing I could think to do was to add the spammer's address
to the iac maillist and then at least we could inflict our conversation
back at him!<evil grin>  Unfortunately I'm not bright enough to figure out
how to do this.   Are you listening, Mr. Administrator?<G>
