Hi,

- So whats peoples advice here on who it might be from the data below?

NB- oddly enough my email address aint below but i was still sent it !

deal with it like everyone else and apply proper filters to your email. :confused4

or, check out "Spamfire". (google it)
 
I'd suggest editing your email out of your post unless you want a few hundred spambots picking it up.

yes ive been doing that for years, but if we all i could trace a spammers own e-m adres we could then filter back their junk to themselves. :)

I suppose, though it's not exactly a new concept.
 
i guess so, tho i did enjoy sending 70+ junk mails to a drugstore website last week :)
