I have to agree with WA4TT. We'd all like to pass the buck and not take the
responsibility due us. I'm a programmer and have several servers I'm the
administrator of. Stopping spam is no small matter. In the real world spam
is here to stay and it's up to the individual to educate him/her self to the
best ways to avoid spam. This is not to say the host/administrator should
ignore it completely. If we are really concerned we would not hesitate to
send that donation intended to aid the admin in suppressing spam. On any
free forum we should not expect the responsibility to lie entirely on the
forums owner/administrator. I think we should consider ourselves very luck
to have these free forums.

That one sentence says it all. Unless we are charged to participate in this
list, it's up to the indivual to use an address he doesn't mind being
harvested. It's also the senders responsibility to check the address box and
see who the heck he's sending mail to. It would also be nice to delete all
the thread that doesn't apply to the info your sending. And last but not
least--- it'd be good to let the "Host" of this list know we appreciate the
use of their site. Perhaps even send a small donation to keep it going. If
once in awhile things don't go just right----"be a damn cowboy" don't start
whining and crying unless you are paying for the service.
