Inoperative E-Mail Addresses in Digest Postings
By Richard Day

Where is Jim Brady,  in response to his note about pipes for sale ?

I e-mailed this address jlbrady@mindspring.com.geentroep.  This was in
the "for sale notice"  The e-mail came back as non-deliverable.  Does
anybody know how to get ahold of this gentleman.  I am looking for
pipes for an air calliope or possible band organ project.

 [ Dick, Good luck you your project.  Please keep us informed of
 [ your progress.
 [
 [ Because we want to discourage the use of e-mail addresses from the
 [ MMDigest by robots doing bulk mailing, we garble the addresses with
 [ a suffix intended to make the address not work if picked up by a
 [ robot.  The idea is that a human user can be taught to snip the
 [ junk off.  We used to use the suffix ".nospam" but it was too
 [ obvious.  "Geen troep" is Dutch and means "no junk".  So far it
 [ seems to be helping, but our readers often forget to snip it off
 [ when replying to Digest articles.  You're in good company!   -- Jody
