Re: I'm protecting myself from receiving junk mail...

" From: farna@xxxxxxx

" It's a legitimate e-mail from a spam filter service. What it does is
" allow mail to go through. If you don't know the guy, ignore it.
" Basically all his e-mail gets intercepted by this service, which sends
" a verification message (what you received). If you don't reply your
" e-mail won't be allowed through the service -- it will be blocked. If
" you do reply, you're sent to the service's site and asked to enter a
" code from a graphic, something a spam bot can't do. Enter the code
" correctly and the service will add your e-mail to his "allowed" list.

that's right, but i think it's malfunctioning.  from the subject lines
i - and i'm sure others - have seen, it's email coming from the list
-- but it's responding to the poster's - our - addresses.

whether he gets list email is between him and his isp.  not my
problem.
