ridecamp@endurance.net: Removing from spam lists

Removing from spam lists

These spam emails are sure irritating! But - if you get Ridecamp in
digest form - and hit the 'REPLY' key and then enter a text of 'remove'
as the spammed message sometimes instructs you to do, all you are doing
is sending your message to the rest of your fellow ridecamper's - not to
the machine that originated the message.

The way to really stop this is to follow Bill Fortner's instructions and
send a message to the System Administrator on the server where the spam
originated. Most do have conditions of use for their customers that
prohibit spamming - just read the contract that you have with your
internet service provider! They will, as I have found, appreciate your
help in stopping improper use of their server. Just send them a
nice,civil, email. If you don't know how to find the server just ask
Bill for his writeup... ( wfortner@peop.tds.net )

I already did this with the latest one with the title ' Income
Madness-Unlimited Income!' The sysop at the server says he will stop the
service to the person originating the spam.
