Tony, You say "in my mail" - but what address are you talking about. If it is your ???-admin address then there is no SPAM checking done by rootsweb. Their ant-spam is there to protect the actual mailing list addresses. Your admin address is no different to any other address - it can & will be targetted. The simple answer to "how do we get rid of it?" is - delete it.

There have been quite a few of these emails where mailing list subscribers computers have been hi jacked and send out SPAM to addresses in the computers address book . In the past few days I have been getting quite alot of similar junk email sent to the lists admin address and some to the lists subscribe address by some smarty pants. I did down load one How does making $70 EVERY 60 Seconds sound to you? the rest I deleted They cant even spell . Just time wasters Bye MargM Beautiful NSW Central Coast Australia
