Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Namaste Moderators, For the last few days i have been receiving junk mails from an email id: narayana145 This person is sending the mails with an attachment purported to contain photos. However, i have not opened any of them and am deleting them as and when they arrive in my mail box. The Subject head contains the ones that appear on the List for my Posts. Is it possible to track down the sender of these mails from the Master List of members of this List? I find from Sri Sada ji's post that i am not alone in facing this menace. Is there a solution for this? Warm Regards, subbu Messenger with Voice. PC-to-Phone calls for ridiculously low rates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Namaste Sri Subbuji: The email ID that you have referred Narayana145 (AT) (DOT) .. is a member of advaitin list. It is a matter of fact that 'Junk' email is not coming to you from the advaitin list but it is coming directly from the email address. I am almost certain, that the cause of these junk mails originate from a 'virus' infected computer. It is possible either your computer or the computer of the sender is infected with a virus and the emails are generated without the knowledge of the sender. Honestly, the list has no control over this problem - the list is certainly the 'NonDoer.' It seems that when we join mailing lists and send/receive emails, there is potential for getting 'Junk' emails due to virus or due to occasional other problems. Being a moderator of this list, I receive lot more junk mails (not necessarily due to virus infection) and I just delete them. I also have a 'spam blocker' which helps me to filter junk emails. Those of us who engage in Internet communications do need to protect our computers by installing firewall, antivirus, spamblocker and antispy as per our need. In spite of all these protections, there is no guarantee that we will be free from any of these problems! This is part of the effect due to a spell of 'mAyA!' Harih Om! Ram Chandran Note: If you access the list archive, you will notice that none of those 'Junk' emails appear in the messages received by the list!
