Virtually all the email - well over 99% - from this system is to and from
various lists.


I've .occasionally. posted this address when using Internet from the
library or my sister's. My sister doesn't do any lists and probably
doesn't average half a dozen messages a week. I always worry about spam
to her system from what I've done but I don't think she's receiving any
spam at all.


I've somehow found myself receiving spam from time to time. As I told
Brian, I don't need Viagra! I don't recall any messages for X-rated sites
on this account though I did receive some (probably a majority of spam
received though the amount probably wasn't that great) via BBS.


The greatest annoyance has been genealogy-related spams. Not that many
but, of course, I can't find out how they obtained my email address. I do
sometimes visit genealogy sites when I do Internet.
