Not a problem now and then, but a definite blacklisting if it happens a lot in a short period of time, which is probable.An example: If I sent a Yahoo! story to each of you on the list and you didn't recognize my email addy, would you report the 'abuse' to spamcop? It only takes a few of you to do it in a short period of time to trigger spamcop's blacklisting...-Dan ------------------------------------------------------------ http://www.StrongGraphicDesign.com (208) 319-0137 | Toll-free p/f 877-561-1656 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
