8/6     I'm sending a reminder mail out with cron.  So I used the:
        mail recpiant@nowhere.com < email         command.
        This works but I don't get a subject.  How can I send my email
        with a subject?  No, this isn't Spam.  -jrleek
        \_ mail -s "Make money fast" recpiant@nowhere.com < email
           \_ but make sure you are using /usr/ucb/mail since /usr/bin/mail
              doesn't have the -s option
           \_ as if any spammer is doing that.
              \_ Well I needed a sample subject line so I decided to make fun
                 of his assertation that he wasn't spammming.

10/21   I've gotten two bounced back e-mails from my CSUA address that I
        didn't send.  Does this mean my account is compromised by a
        spammer?
        \_ Probably not, the spammer is probably just joejobbing your
           address. -dans

8/29    So after changing a few pics on friendster, I got 2 emails from two
        different women. One works at Coca Cola down in Africa, and the
        other one with a generic hello, eager for a reply from me. I didn't
        post anything spectacular or anything and I'm suspecting that this
        is a spam attempt. Has anyone gotten a similar response after
        changing pics or specs? Thanks.

6/2     I've been to many places and almost every place I go to have
        802.11b/g. However, almost all of them have protected access,
        which I presume they use because they don't want people stealing
        their bandwidth. So here is one idea I think will really
        revolutionize 802.11X... an option in the router that allows you to
        specify the percentage of unprotected bandwidth you are willing to

1/12    How can I email a group of people individually if I have
        a list of their email addresses and names, and I want each
        email to begin with a personalized greeting (e.g. Dear Mr. A)
        Any platform is ok. Thanks.

9/3     I started getting spam on an account that is only mentioned on
        my webpage (it's not my normal account). If it's an automated
        spider or something that scans webpages for email addresses,
        would it make a difference if I either 1) put up the email address
        without an actual "mailto:" link or 2) put up an image of the
        text of my email address? Thanks.

6/30    Fucking spammers. Even after using spamassassin and using sa-learn
        on every single spam I get, I still get about 10 a day. I seriously
        hope those guys get a nice ass raping in jail.
        \_ Thanks for sharing.
        \_ I firmly believe that the only solution to the spam problem will be
           vigilantism.  And I mean hiring a guy named Vinny to go break a
