That's what I'm talking about, Guerri. I get half a dozen a day. They're
spam, where the spammers have used your address and mine (and a bunch of
others) as "return addresses" instead of their own and when the addressees
aren't there, the mindless machinery sends them "back".

Mine was a bit different from what you describe. The Email address
itself was not mine. It had my name ahead of the at sign (@) but not my
Email address. But I've seen the stuff you mentioned as well. At least
I'm not getting as many as you are.

Just checking up

Did everyone else get the leading mail in this sequence? Its been quite interesting following the thread but I never received the
first mail in the thread and at a guess I am probably missing about half of the whole thread (I can see 4 mails)

The thread started with a message from Dodi on Oct. 31. There was a
message from Tim Lodge on the 31st, and again from Dodi. Then there was
a message from Paul on Nov. 1. Do you have those?

Yes, I start with Dodi on Oct 31... But Dodi's first message is a reply

Then I have Paul, Guerri , Dodi (to Paul), Dodi(to Guerri) Guerri


NB... I'm not specifically interested in the subject, more that I'm not seeing things that I should

Well, it looks like you are missing Dodi's first message on the 31st
("it's off topic ...") and Tim's reply to here on the 31st
("Unfortunately ...") and you start with Dodi's second message on the
31st ("Thanks, Tim..."). You may be missing others as well. I didn't
trace the whole thing.
