Hi all,
Here's a message that I got recently. As you can see its from some dot-com who thinks its good at handling spam. The mail itself got marked as "SPAM" on the IITB servers, by the way! ;-)

You may remember recently sending an email to a Spam Arrest customer, and receiving a response asking you to visit our website and type in a word that was shown to you in a picture.

I do remember getting such a mail from a person named Rishi on this group. And I had replied to him saying that please try to keep mailing lists out of this hassle. Now through him spamarrest decides it has found an email address worth sending adverisements to, which I consider spam. Does that mean Rishi is responsible for my account getting these mails?
Is there any place where I can discuss this with people involved in tackling the spam problem?
Sameer.
