Lawrence,
I agree that these messages are annoying but it may be difficult to filter
them all. Just hit the "delete" button; the "delete file" is a bottomless
pit, anyway. I use Microsoft Exchange which has a "preview" window and
don't even have to open the message. [This is not intended to be a plug for
Microsoft! ;-) ]

Subject: Spam on ASA: Technologies for Worship
I hope there is a way that this list can be protected from being
commercialized by
SPAM like this. We are a great target for such ventures, and if
allowed by our
gatekeepers, will seriously dilute the value of the List. Each
member of the List
shud feel responsible to avoid giving the <address> to commercial
exploiters such as
this. It is especially onerous to be told that unless you take the
trouble to
message them, you will continue to be targeted.
