First off... We all got it. It was addressed to Gerry... Second, never do what they want to get yourself off the list. It confirms your e-mail address and you will get SPAM like never before.

I thinks the List Administrators are trying to clean up the Spam stuff on the vanagon list, but it isn't easy. To do so 100% is to not allow posts except from anyone on the list. A PITA for those of us who monitor the list at work through POP mail accounts like hotmail (i.e. Robot, AKA me!)

So don't do the remove thing.. they don't have YOUR address, they only have GERRY's. Until you give it to them. Just hit delete.
