Thanks Shal, But we average about 50-60 newbies each month and quite a few unsubbed for spam were usually in that group. It seems that the services most often doing this are Hotmail, RoadRunner,

Mark, In the last sentence I would change "And they know" to "The email also lets them know". I'd also shorten the link text in the left column to "Removed because of Spam". It is the longest text,

Thanks for that clarification. I think this is a huge boon! -- J Messages are the sole opinion of the author, especially the fishy ones. I wish I could shut up, but I can't, and I won't. -
