The not BBCing annoys me to but I just take a quick minute to let them know that I don't appreciate it BUT explain to them how to use BCC. Sure it gets annoying but the more people we help, the better. Now I do know there are some that just play stupid but most are very appreciative when I explain the problem with it to them.

IF they then do it again, I either ask to be removed from their list (oh there is another thing that annoys me, not having an opt out in the email LOL) or I'll just report it as spam.

But I do see your point and how it can become aggravating Wink

Angie,

I hate that too! It baffles me why there is no opt-out!

Then I hate it when spammers get my email addy and pass it along to all of their spammer buddies and then I really get hammered!

Actually, if you want something to "back you up" on this matter ... this is illegal and against the CAN SPAM Act Wink Unless they have $11,000.00 just lying around ... they may want to check this out:

Take care,
