[sac-forum] Re: Is this Legitimate?

HI Stan,
That's normal. Most bulk list providers (freelists.org is one) send these out to remind you that you are subscribed. You should usually receive one once a month.
The plea for help is just an added "bonus", but I've donated to them on more than one occasion as I subscribe to a number of very useful lists that they host.

I just received the following message but have never received it before. Is this something freelists is just starting to do and to expect more in the future?
