Spam, spam, spam, spam, ...

Hi,

There had been some discussion earlier about people seeing an increase
in spam since Yahoo took over egroups. Here is a list showing the
subject line and sender of spam I've received in the past few days (less
than a week). I'm just curious whether anyone else here is receiving the
same messages. If not, then I suppose whatever list I'm on got my name
some other way. 

Forgive me for the off-topic posting, but the spam mail is getting worse
every day, and if there is a Yahoo connection, we should complain.
Loudly.

Lois
