Me too. It's infuriating. I got unimelb's server to delete an old @ of mine
that was regularly plagued with big dick ads and the like, and my in-box
(no relation) has immediately filled up with crap aimed at my current @;
yeah, filters help but it's a damned pest, and the volume of crap brought
the server to its knees for several days. I'm still using an old win98 so
the virus can't be on my machine (I gather); someone's address book has
been pilfered, presumably, or lots of someones. But the damned genie is out
of the bottle now, and Emmers and I and other victims are stuck with it, I
guess.
