SPAM

A computer question rather than fish. How do I sign and verify my new
account without publishing my email for the spam bots. eg
. I have noticed people doing this but
since my real account does not include'TAKEOUT' I can't verify/setup a
different account. My spam and "You were sent a Virus" messages have
really increased since I started posting here.

====================
I don't know what news reader you're using but you can put any email address
where it SHOWS. If you don't you will soon be buried in spam. Fortunately
my ISP has an excellent spam filter I utilize on my email account. Some nut
is plastering my e-mail address all over the net and I'd have an overflowing
inbox without it. It only lets legitimate posts through to my inbox.
You may want to ask your ISP if he/she has this type of filtering. Many do,
due to the huge number of spammers these days.

the FYI and BTW were actually an apparently weak attempt at levity as
part of that sentence.
