If their mailings reach the group, someone can email to give them the correct form of address to get in; if their contributions are rejected we could lose them. No, I tried another tack with our spurious mailer: I programmed cc:Mail 3.0 to send her an email consisting of the word SPAM repeated 20,000 times, on the hour, every hour. The first line of the message stated that this would continue until she promised to stop sending unsolicited material. I am sure it will have had little or no effect but it sure kept my tiny mind entertained.
