    I just like that fact that with them, you dont know what address they are sending it to, so sending a message back to them to unsubscribe is always fun too.

    Exactly.

    Thats going to make this game a whole lot more fun for them

    I really am an asshole when it comes to stuff like this too, i dont mind 1 address being added to a spam list, but not 8, that just makes it so obvious they crawled GWW (among other places).

    Go get em Lee! I get this shite from avn daily. I will NEVER do business with a company that sends me emails daily without my consent.

    BTW i installed box trapper, its free and part of cpanel. People have to click a confirm link to send me emails. I check the not sent list daily and black list spam and whitelist genuine emails that havnt confirmed themselves (like gww notifcations and sales etc).

    The spam mails in the un-sent que is getting less and less and it feels nicer somehow that they havent got to my inbox. like less intrusive.

    We should do a shit list of companies who spam and all vow never to buy or do biz with them.

    I hate spammers!

    Personally, I'm not a fan of spam solutions that force anyone sending me mail (or force me, if I'm sending mail) to take an additional step to prove that they are not spam, even if it only has to be done once.

    There are several excellent third-party solutions which, though they cost a few bucks a month, do an outstanding job of filtering messages without any inconvenience to sender or receiver. I mean, it sucks that we have to pay to filter out crap we don't want to receive, but to me, that's better than inconveniencing either the sender or receiver.

    That was actually relatively easy..

    You have been unsubscribed from 'avnonline_weekly'.
    Looks like someone from AVN has seen this thread

    Only a couple more email addies to go now and all will be good with the world again

    Regards,

    Lee, for some reason, you were signed up for the newsletter under three separate email addresses. I'm not sure how that happened, as I'm told that people are not randomly added to the mailing list unless they sign up to receive the newsletter themselves.

    At any rate, yes, I took care of taking all 3 email addresses off the newsletter mailing list. God knows you have enough companies to publicly attack on your board.

    Regards,
    Ken

    It must have been a 'glitch' in your script.

    Or a 'rogue' employee.

    That seems to be the 'norm' for unexplained happenings these days

    At any rate i appreciate you remove the address the glitch or rogue employee entered

    Who said anything about MAGIC? We have little black gremlins and trolls who manage our mailing lists. It's all their fault.
