Jason, Some asshole spoofed the list with the wrong reply address for the Information Server at Sympatico. The correct address is: Information Server
Your subject header should be: "Help" The body of the message should contain: "email security" I hope this helps.
Dave, It worked, thanks. It is a shame that a few jerkoffs have to spoil the list for everyone else. regards jason
