OK

Thank you for all the e-mail, keep it coming Privet or Threw the list.
This also includes the poor people out there who started getting ride camp
postings for some ungodly reason even as recent as last night in
Alaska.(this is one of many)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is time to really take a look at this problem. It is obvious some one
has tampered with this list, and it will only get worse, for every one. It
is MORE than server problems. Individual E-mail programs dont just change
buy them selves......I know my program. If non subscribers keep on getting
mail, you bet there will be spam etc.....

If people from this list are getting spam, flamed, from people that are not
leaving names, I am beginning to think may be the flamer/ spam is not on
the list. I really do not think it is the norm to get flamed for objecting
to (porn)using this lightly........ on the ridecamp list. We all get our
backs up once in a while, but this is different...... (some one else
mentioned this too)

There are basic rules usually followed , when allowed to subscribe to a
list. Other wise you are eliminated publicly. Up front.........
A list is a privilege since it is a subscription...... there for if abused,
(not for ones opinion "da") you know what is meant.

I love the people on this list I love the information, What can I do as a
subscriber of this list to help with the elimination of these Tech
problems. The keeper of this list must be ripping their hair out at this
point. Along with the probably 1000's that are getting ridecamp mail buy
error. I want to help and not be the problem. How can a secure list be
recreated?..(this does not mean eliminating any one just conferming
subscribers. There needs to be a game plan real quick here............

Thanks Sigrid

P.S It may be as simple as a cookie attack..........
