Hi Everyone,
I am the mysterious msteele@signbiz.com. I can assure you I have not been
sending the virus/worm to any of you. I work in the tech industry and I
have spent all week helping people that have been infected by it.
I have been lurking on this list for a few months now since I just purchased
a new Dakota Quad Cab at the end of May and the collective knowledge of the
group has been an invaluable asset to me. I thank all of you.
I recently started using the spam arrest and I did add the list to my
authorized list, however some of you seem to get "lost" and have been
getting the message originally stated in this thread. I had no idea that
spam arrest collected addresses and then sent spam to people who verify. I
guess I should have suspected something like that to happen. I guess I was
just to gullible.
I am truly sorry for any incontinence this has caused to any of you. I had
hoped my first post to the group would have been helpful to someone and that
I would have made a better impression than this.
Michael Steele

The way it works is that you have a pop account on their server.
Their server, in turn, pops your e-mail from your existing mail
account every 2 minutes (you provide them with your username/password
and mail server) and filters it.

I know :-/
