e-mail links

baz · 05-19-2005

hi all ,
just a quick thing ,as we have been the target of spamers(?otto 1 m or 2?)
would members please not use the "@" in an e-mail link on the board . we can all work out you need to change it and it stops the web spiders reading the link and sending spam to the folks you talk about . thank for your help on this, baz

Good idea, Baz - Just put "at" instead of @

just a refresher please dont "@" your email add so you dont get spam when the google spiders visit
just type "at" and we can change it to send or we will use the email link in your profile

its not nice to do this to yourself , i know this as after 1 visit to 1 of the other opel sites i now clear an average of 200 spams / week from my mail account
