I post using Hotmail because they filter my mail before I download it. My
Outlook gets stuffed with spam and I have to filter it after the fact.
Wastes a lot of my time. And I otherwise use my non-hotmail account for my
business. Pointless, since that is now where I am getting all my spam....

As for someone's previous post about offline conversations, as this thread
is off topic, it should be offline of this NG. Anything tending towards off
topic subjects, or content which might incite flame wars should be taken
offline. Thus, not munging your address or posting in your signature line
another method of displaying a valid address makes other communications
possible.

The OP, Electric Nachos, has munged their replyto address making offline
communications impossible unless you happen to know their real addy.

I advise anyone to have an address provided by a free service, like Yahoo
mail or Hotmail, just for NG posting. And to post their addy in their
sigline eg. smserba at hotmail dot com. The spiders and email harvesters
cannot identify that as an address. But they can pick up the addresses in
quoted replies.

Why? I'm on this group to swap anecdotes about my cats. If you aren't try
another group.
I'm not quite sure why I'm suspicious of hotmail posts, but I am and your
post wasn't helpful.

No munging your address is necessary because of spambots. Now I agree
with the part of putting a contact method in your signature line. I
myself just use a valid email address in the from line that is a
throwaway address that can be changed at any time.


I advise anyone to have an address provided by a free service, like Yahoo
mail or Hotmail, just for NG posting. And to post their addy in their

You mean currently they can't - which is good. As a programmer I could
write a routine that would figure out the email address by replacing the
at with @ and dot with a . character. Better to put a word or
character in the address that is invalid and give instructions on
removing it.
