Hi Clint,
I think I was able to add the list to my allowed list, but
for some
reason, your emails still keep coming under the quarantine
database. I
don't know why. I have to go to work soon, so I'll have to
work more on
this tomorrow. Thank you for your suggestion, and I'm sorry
for being a
pain. BTW, I should have worded my last comment better. I
didn't mean
that you mentioned having me romoved from the list. It was
Hugh's email
that hinted toward's it. His quote --> " In a
similar
situation with Ralph (I think it was Ralph) Marlene
considered removing
him from the list."
Lisa

Because I'm very busy with hundreds of emails per day and
customers, I can only recall right off hand most of the most
frequent postees at this list. After some thought, yes, I
remember you now. 
No one is saying that you are trying to Spam someone on
purpose
Lisa. But for all of those that continuously receive this
"challenge systems", it can be considered a form
of Spam to the
recipient.
The suggestions I previously gave you is a starting point
(about your ISP). If you don't have a website, you can get
one
and get it hosted for really cheap. A domain name (plus
hosting by with whomever you register it) for about $1.99,
but
the hosting may be a bit more. A domain name for about
$6.95-$8.95, then really GOOD hosting for about $4.95 a
month
(get one that uses the cPanel hosting software). The
purpose
of that would be your domain would have as many email
addresses
as you wanted, yours to delete and create at will, and
FILTERED
by cPanel's "Email filters" to which you can
create up to 999
email filters blocking anything you chose in the header,
subject, or message body.
I am unfamiliar with how your current Spam system works.
There
may be a way to add to some whitelist, any emails with this
list's email address in the header. Like the list's emails
show in the header "reply to: [list's email
address]", so see
if you could possibly add that to a whitelist. It's
possible
that won't work and you'd have to add all the list members'
addresses which would be a pain. For more info on that,
you'd
have to contact them, or someone else that uses the same
system.
I never suggested the sender of these emails (you) to be
removed from the list. My exact words, at the bottom of my
post, were:
"If anyone knows her, please tell her to do something
about it. Thanks,"
See?

God Bless

A few things: First, I've been on this list for YEARS - you
think
someone would have known who I was? I know I don't post that
often, but
I have posted a lot over the years, and Clint, you are one
of
the people
who have helped me a lot. I would never try to spam someone
on
purpose!
That's the whole idea of me getting this program to begin
with.
I was
using NIS 2006 and it HAD an antispam filter for a long
time,
then they
took it out. I wish they didn't. I have NIS 2007 and it
doesn't
have the
spam filter. Do you have any suggestions on a better one? I
have been
looking and can't find one. I tried to add your email
address
to the
allowed list on this antispam program (Comodo Antispam 2005)
and it says
you're already on the list. How do I add a whole list's
email
address
without having to add people individually? I'm on another
list
that gets
a LOT of email and I have to keep adding people
individually. I
get a
lot of email, so I get a lot of spam. I'm not trying to pass
spam on
others, I'm trying to get rid of it. I use Outlook for my
email
because
my Pocket PC synchronizes with it. If you can help me,
please
do, but it
hurt when you suggested knocking me off the list - thanks a
lot!
Lisa

I'm inclined to agree with Hugh, sorry Lisa.
I thought I answered your comment in my original post, but
here it is
again:
"I DO NOT reply to these because these places
blackmail/extort
you into
using them. Once they get your email address, they will
then
start
sending YOU various BS (that's Spam)."
Optonline.net is one of the worse USA ISP's as far as Spam
goes. 2nd or
3rd maybe to Comcast, Cogencto and maybe Verizon. More UCE
comes FROM
these ISP's than any other. I have been forced to block
more of the
latter 3's IP addresses with my email filters than any other
in the USA,
that's how bad it is.
I would tell your ISP you need a new email address from
them, and if you
were careful about your original address, TELL THEM this;
it's been
believed that these aforementioned ISP's actually SELL their
members'
email addresses to nefarious places.
Isn't there a way you can add this list's email address to
some
whitelist? -Clint

Lisa, in your attempt to protect yourself, you're Spamming
others and
asking them to inconvenience themselves on your behalf. I
suggest this
is not a good solution. Imagine having to reply to hundreds
of these
emails for every list you're on. Not going to happen. In a
similar
situation with Ralph (I think it was Ralph) Marlene
considered removing
him from the list. You should figure out how to add these
names
yourself, or just get Thunderbird
(http://www.
mozilla.com/en-US/thunderbird/) which solves this
problem
without intruding on others' time. This type of SPAM
protection is never
going to work, so you might as well switch now.
