Re: E-mail address masquerading for archived mail messages


hey there...  it sure is about time that I got a copy from anti-spam
group...  My name is Aaron and I am into spam fighting.  Currently, I am a
member of the Spam Brigade, a pretty tough group and enjoy kicking the
spammers off the net.  We currently have a web-site, and you may want to
check it out.  We have good contents on it. (tutorials, links to softwares
and even a kill list from out members)  So if you ever get curious of what
is on that site, feel free to check it out.
