There's a glitch or a bot at the moment making its way through MSN groups which seems to affect the postings of those who have their email settings checked to show their email addy in their profile. It somehow selects their postings and reposts them, usually be email, at random to discussions they have already contrubuted to, sometimes days after the original posting. It looks as if they are spamming but it is MSN's software apparently.

Memberships will conceivably be terminated if corrections are not made.  If this be the case, and you want to rejoin, please do so, but do not elect to have your email address showing
 

TO ALL MEMBERS:
Regardless of glitches, it is a good idea to go to your Member Tools area, and change your E-mail Settings so that your address is not on view.  Also, elect to view Messages on the Board (Web) as well, and not in your Inbox.
