Debian is seeing them too. I was hoping someone there would have figured out how to stop this stupidity but much of the thread devolved into even more off-topicness than the discussion of this problem. There didn't seem to be any solution that I could see. So, if you receive a message from joe1assistly@gmail.com (email purposely not obscured) in response to something said here then I am sorry. I wish I could figure out how to stop it but, so far, I can't. I asked people to send full headers but they have proved to be worthless. I do see that there seems to be a twitter account for this person though. Maybe we can ask them to stop there. cgf -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
