Right. I have subscribed to a number of newsgroups over the years, and when I no longer want to see postings on that subject, I un-subscribe. I am still subscribed to c.d.i. for the technical forum it provides, NOT the job postings. As you say, if I need a new job, I will subscribe to a jobs newsgroup, or read the papers. > NOTE: I add all these address at the bottom of people who spam me > Now when their extractors extract my e-mail address they will also > end up spamming each other.
