Title: Backup R65.org Yahoo Group Attacked by Spam
Post by: Rob Valdez 79 R65 on December 03, 2008, 01:13:44 AM

Spammers have started joining our backup group on Yahoo (a place to gather if this one crashes).
Apparently Joan has a very low spam tolerance, and quit.  I decided that wasn't a bad idea.
I wrote to the creator - Harry71 but have not heard back, yet.

I don't know who Harry71 is.

I think I remember who he is, Rob.  But I think he sold his R65.  He might not even remember he has this Yahoo Group set up.

I did check it a few months ago and noticed there was some spam there.  I didn't know how to contact the owner of it though and forgot about it.  I'm glad you were able to at least send him an e-mail.  I will try to send him an e-mail also.  This spam stuff is not good.

I think we will end up abandoning it and starting another.
