I created this hotmail account soley for the use of "Nancy Mignone" and ONLY for techwr-l. I have used it for no other purpose.
I get lots and lots of spam mail. Today I got an invitation to join a pornographic site, which is somewhat unfortunate, considering I am at work. Now "Nancy" never in her life would even have contemplated a site devoted soley to pornography, so how "Nancy" got this particular email, I'll never know.


I have
a separate e-mail address at home, exclusively for mailing lists, most of
which (started out as one-lists, then e-groups, now) are yahoogroups. I've
never received any spam at that mailing address over the three years it's
been in operation: none of the mailing lists it's used for allow
non-subscribers access to the e-mail addresses.
