I got some of this type of SPAM, and I thought it was coming
through my Rootsweb surname list. But it turned out to be
coming through an email group that I received email from.
Some of them were subscribed to another, non-Rootsweb, list,
as well as to my Rootsweb list. This other list was not
being properly attended by the list owner. When he got
pornography solicitations, he woke up and closed his list.
So, in my case, Rootsweb was not to blame.

Fellow Listers,
For some reason SPAM is getting through Rootsweb and I can't understand why.
I don't know if the whole list is getting it, or just me--it looks like
probably the entire lists.
What has really upset me is that all of a sudden now, SPAM advertising Adult
Sites is getting through!!
Please, let me know if you all are also getting these!! I am writing
Rootsweb with a complaint but I would like to know how wide-spread it is
1st.
Again, I apologize for this and I want to get it stopped before my
children--or yours--happens to be at the computer when it comes through!!
Under Rootsweb!!!
Thanks!
