Administrivia -- ".nospam" Protection
By Robbie Rhodes

[ Re-printed from Digest 971212 ]

Look at the "From:" line above, and notice that ".nospam" has been
appended to the e-mail address:

    From: rollreq@foxtail.nospam (MMD Administration)
                         ^^^^^^^
We have added this phony element in order to thwart automatic engines
which search for your address for the junk e-mailers.

But remember -- if you send a letter to me at that phony e-mail
address, it will immediately bounce back to you!  You must delete the
last element, ".nospam", to have a valid address when you reply to any
MMD author.

Thus far, the "rolls" and "rollreq" addresses are receiving only a few
junk letters each week, but it will get worse for everyone around the
world -- or so they predict.   :(

Happy "Connected" New Year !

Robbie Rhodes, MMD
