Can we agree that this sort of stuff is not an appropriate way to
fight spam. Jump through a hoop, visit a web site, pick up a magic
string, then paste it into subsequent mail I send. I don't know very many
people who I'm that desperate to sent e-mail to.
I was responding to a message he sent me; evidently he's too busy to read
answers to questions he asks.
