Paula,
Then all you can do for now is to remove the e-mail address from
your mailing list and then block them. Like Linda, I have received several
of these using the request address. However if it went to all of your
mailing list, I would send a letter to the list members, stating this is
spam and no one should believe this or respond to it. Next, remove them
from the mailing list, block their e-mail and then go to the full header of
the e-mail and find the originating senders address and report the spam.
Usually abuse(a)soandso.com the
soandso.com being the provider.
Hope this has helped,

Hi Linda-
This message did not come to me bounced as the administrator - I would
not have been concerned as much if it had. It was actually posted to all
the Mail List. Usually if it is bounced there is message along with
hit-but this was not the case of the message.
Hope no more of these some through.
