Errr - Sometimes I reply to them off list. Or is that just me?

The guy after the postcode, sent a thank you. He turned out to be from the US 
and trying to send an astrology chart to a couple who had paid, but not left 
their address.

I hate the spammers. I really hate the spammers who spoof my addresses.
In the long term, I assume this will get worse. Does anyone have a long term 
solution apart from changing email addresses every few years or signing up 
for AOL

(Joke honest!)
