This would have to generate a unique email subject line per subscriber to these lists, and would not be kind to the server hardware. The idea is to use a unique number in the subject line, record who that number was sent to, and automaticly unsub the person that number was sent to when that number comes back in the subject line of the C/R. Then I presume it could become a war of scripts but if a pattern could be discerned by keeping a log of who was unsubbed, I think its a winnable war, and we will have won when the perp cancels that 'service'. FWIW, there is no one using a uol.com.br address on the subscription list according to Warren. And pursuant to others requests that we shut the hell up, I'll make no further responses to this thread. Its wasted at least as much bandwidth as the C/R's have over the last 6 months. -- Cheers, Gene People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word 'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's stupid bounce rules.
