Gentle Subscribers :-)

We are blessed to have a diverse group of people on this List.
Terry Zobl has quickly and eloquently solved the mystery of the message 
that arrived as "YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS HAS BEEN ADDED TO MY WHITE LIST"
Thanks, Terry for your solution.

Read Terry's brief message, below.

This is what happened: The subscriber with the email address < 
woodcarver at dslextreme.com> was the person whose emailer sent the 
message.
Clearly, this individual ( woodcarver at dslextreme.com) was trying to 
deal with SPAM on his own computer. The free program he employed for 
this task sent the message to the List with the subject line  "YOUR 
EMAIL ADDRESS HAS BEEN ADDED TO MY WHITE LIST".  It was the way the 
writers of the software created to "plug" their spam software.

Mystery solved.
No harm done.

Blessings and Peace,

Bill
