hilarious.
I'll take your lead and might do that myself some time
...
If I send them a message this will probably reveal my
email to them. And beside there is probably nobody
there, just some software.
So it means that
1) you put yourself to danger of receiving spam
2) you just generate more nonsense web traffic

petar: I'm not asking you or anyone to send an email to
them.
I'm relying on the various spam bots out there that
scour the web and look for email addresses in html and
then add them to spam lists automatically.
no human needs to be involved..
Roy,
I realize this is your blog and you can do whatever you
wish with it, and I empathize with your feelings about
spam, but the fact someone dared spam you (how did
someone ever think about doing that?! what a
revolutionary concept!) doesn't mean you need to spam
all of our RSS feeds with this nonsense.
Thanks for paying the favor forward to all your readers!
Yitzhak.
Yitzhak : That's why I put the [ot] (off topic) on the
title. so you won't need to bother opening it unless you
care to look at something this blog usually doesn't deal
with.
The main difference is:
- you opted out to receive news from this blog
- the blog does not send "off topic" posts (spam to your
saying) all the time
- if you do find that you don't like the topics anymore
you can (I can't) opt-out.
Very different from spam.

Quite primitive, don't you think?
Indeed. Primitive. but works.
Well done Roy.
It amused me anyway.
Lets hope the email address does not get registered for
anything that would cause it to receive lots of spam...
I'm curious, how did you find his address? Are you sure
it's the spammer's?
Please don't tell me you found it in the reply-to or
from field... those usually are faked.
Guess what you will never know, National Position may
scour this address again and send spam to themselves ;)
I do hope that you understand that that email adress
probably is not owned by the spammer, but is just some
email adress from a poor innocent person?
I receive about 500 pieces of spam per day, a great
percentage of which are anti-spam programs replying to a
message that supposedly originated from my email adres..
