[Az-Geocaching] spam

[Brian Cluff]

My best guess would be that one of the many people crawling the internet
for e-mail address' got ahold of your address from pages like:
http://listserv.azgeocaching.com/pipermail/az-geocaching/2002-June.txt

We go out of our way to protect your e-mail address in every way that we
can (ie. it doesn't show up when you search for mail on
AzGeocaching.com), but there are a couple of places that it shows up
that lets the no good types get ahold of it.
Incidentally, we got more spam directed at the list today that ever
before.  I deleted it of course, it does make me believe that someone
just crawled the heck out of our server.
