[PRCo] Re: administrivia: sadly...

[Phillip Clark Campbell]

I understand the reality Mr.Brashear.  Someone used this email for sending
spam when I was away; I was faced with many critical emails when I
returned.  Thus my address was being used to 'legitimately' to send mail
through yahoo.  It was not the yahoo server was it.

It is good the bad situation worked so nicely for Mr.Brannon.  I have not
done banking online for this reason.

Fear not, Mr.Brashear; you shall be blamed again for list problems that
have nothing to do with this list.  That is the way our humanity seems to
work isn't it.
