Hiya Andy,

The problem is and it has been proven on TSF.. Commercials do frequent
these groups & fishing forums.

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.

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!

Except you need to make sure that you don't inadvertantly use
someone else's registered domain (the part after @).
www.thesea.com is such a registered domain and you can get
into trouble if you use it without permission. A good site for checking
this is www.uk2.net, where it will also give you a good deal of other info.

A couple of good (and free) ways to deal with spam is, e.g.
www.spammotel.com where you can create as many new email addresses
as you like and delete, suspend or re-activate them at will. It will also
tell you
(if you want it to) just where the spammer got your address from.

There is also www.spamgourmet.com where you can set up an account to
forward a chosen numbers of emails to your proper email address and then
all subsequent emails are automatically deleted (in my particular case the
first 4 were forwarded, the rest all deleted). This is useful if you need to
initially
validate an email address for puposes such as posting to Googlegroups and
News Individualnet, for example, but don't want the susequent spam deluge.

There are other such site too, but ITYGTP

snipped for brevity
I checked that website another speculative registration I thought they were
going to stamp those out. I have generally used the "added phrase in mail
addy "method on my newsgroup meanderings obvious to humans no so to
mailbots............so far! makes you wonder though is everybody too busy
out fishing to post ? maybe there will be a public study on the relationship
between bad weather and postings

It always seems to be busiest at the peak of the rockling season.
