Hiya Andy,
The amount of spam you get after posting on here don't help either

If you are using "Outlook Express" follow this route. Tools : Accounts :
News : Properties : then change your e-mail address for instance
.
subscribers cannot directly contact you but it stops all the Spam.
putting "Nospam" in the address to be removed for legitimate reasons does
not work, spammers have software that search for and remove these words.
Alex.
Or..... If your ISP allows you to have more than one mailbox, set up another
one and use that as your contact email address for News Groups... as I do.
It's a real email address, I just don't download the emails sent to it or
very rarely.
fyi... this last time I did check the mailbox, I had over 80 messages of
which, more than 60 had virus attachments, 2 were from my ISP (just
newsletters) and the rest were spam!
