Hi Ted I am afraid its not quite that simple In the vast majority of cases the owner of the email address from where the phishing mail came from will be blissfully unaware that their security has been compromised, a simple click on the wrong site or misleading link is all it takes, they could have been a subscriber for years, this can and does happen to anyone The ne'er do wells take over the address book of the infiltrated computer and sends out unsolicited mails, in the hope that someone responds to either pay them money or simply to get a live email address to send yet more spam to The person who owns the email address is probably now aware that they have a problem and will hopefully take remedial action The best action in most cases is for the list user to delete the mail, do not respond or mark it as spam, never resend the spam to the list List admin will have the offending mail removed from the archives in due course Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 20/03/2015 10:54, Ted Finch via wrote: > This sender has obviously subscribed to Mariners in order to have been > able to post to the list and should have been unsubscribed by the > listowners. > > regards > Ted
