Did you join any other list or start using any other site around the same
time? I've been using this list since 1998 and I almost never get any spam.
The only time I had a problem was when some Onelists I belonged to switched
to eGroups. All of a sudden I started getting an avalanche of spam. I quit
those lists and took my name off the eGroups master list. The spam stopped
*that day*. I don't invite it by posting a profile on AOL, either. Post a
profile anywhere, use an e-mail address that can receive mail to talk on a
chat line or use ICQ functions and you're doomed. I've never received spam
that I could associate in any way with www.sneezy.org. Hope you can figure
out how to put that spam back in its can. Minor annoyance, sure, but --
never did like the taste of that stuff.
