Welcome to my world. I been getting these since I switched from using
comcast's mail crap, er server to my own. That was like 5 months ago or
so. I deleted 40 of em from my inbox today. I keep meaning to set up a
filter of some sort, and I keep pushing it off. I guess its not
annoying enough yet for me. In any event, I don't think this is a
matter for the courts...
