Standard practice, Carl ... I've had this happen in a few of my lists from time to time, and I also like it, PSW Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless handheld -----Original Message----- From: "Carl Hommel" <chommel6@comcast.net> Sender: listowners-bounces@rootsweb.com Date: Tue, 31 Jan 2012 17:25:32 To: listowners-L@rootsweb.com<Listowners-L@rootsweb.com> Subject: [LO] List Spammer Removal This has nothing to do with previous post. Last week a subscriber to one of my Lists posted a message to the List which my personal filter said was "a threat". I immediately put the subscriber on mod, and told my List not to open it. Then I commenced the archive removal scheme, which worked OK. I received a confirmation in a few hours, and the message is gone from the archives. Now the funny thing, which I have never heard of before. Today I received a copy of an E-Mail Message from Listmaster at Rootsweb, addressed to the spammer, which started out saying "I am the person at RootsWeb who is responsible for the overall management of the mailing lists we provide for the genealogical community." He went on to say that he was deleting the spammer from ALL his subscribed Lists, and then listed them all, and it was quite a long list! And I received E-Mail that the spammer was deleted from my List. Is this something new? I quite approve. ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to LISTOWNERS-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
