SPAM Management
By Jody Kravitz

From time to time we change the email addresses that we use for the
MMD.  The reason for this is SPAM management.  The current addresses
all end with the suffix -1201.  The implication of this is that it was
the first new address that we used in 2012.  We intended to change the
addresses in 2014 and never got around to it.  Robbie reports that 10
SPAM message per hour are now arriving at editor-1201@ and it's making
it harder and harder to not overlook a real message.  We've agreed
this is a necessary change.

We know that changing the addresses causes problems.  Some of you that
whitelisted the -1201 addresses will have to whitelist this new set of
addresses, like rolls-1701@ and editor-1701@.  Also, for those of you
sending e-mails to us rather than using the website's contact form,
you'll need to update your address books as well.

Starting today please send us messages using the website contact form
at http://www.mmdigest.com/Contact  or use these new email addresses:

      Articles not containing attachments:
            rolls-1701@mmdigest.com.geentroep
      Messages to the editor which may include attachments:
            editor-1701@mmdigest.com.geentroep
      Messages requesting subscription maintenance should use the
      contact form.  Check the box "For Editor's Eyes Only".

If your ISP requires that you whitelist addresses so that they are
not treated as SPAM, please whitelist rolls-1701@mmdigest.com.geentroep

*** You should do that NOW. ***

We will start using the new address for sending on Monday, Aug 14th.
You can start e-mailing us with the new addresses now.

In all cases, please don't include the ".geentroep" as part of the
address.  This is just noise to confuse the SPAM robots that might be
reading this message.

Thank you for your understanding,

Jody Kravitz & Robbie Rhodes
