Mari, I think Rootsweb has pretty good spam protection to stop stuff like that. Man to have nothing better to do with your day. <G> As list admin, if you do get an email that you find offensive from our list, feel free to contact me or to send it to the rootsweb help desk.

Our TNGenWeb BBS's are being hit hard by spammers promoting smut. Most of our Special Projects and a lot of the TN counties are being covered with "porn messages". They say things like "test-ignore", "China Doll" and more. They link to very nasty pages. We're taking care of our counties but I was wondering if anyone else had seen this problem. Has Rootsweb been hit by these? I sure hope not.

Hey Teresa, I was just trying to find out if anyone else was having this problem. Seems like we've been targeted lately. I'm VERY glad to hear that Rootsweb is not having trouble. Hopefully these foolish ppl will get tired and leave quietly.
