Your subscription to BUGTRAQ is due for renewal. If you wish to remain
subscribed to BUGTRAQ, please issue the following command to
LISTSERV@NETSPACE.ORG at your earliest convenience:
CONFIRM BUGTRAQ
You will be automatically removed from the list if you do not send a
CONFIRM command within the next 14 days.
PS: In order to facilitate the task, this message has been specially
formatted so that you only need to forward it back to
LISTSERV@NETSPACE.ORG to have the command executed. Note that while the
formats produced by the forwarding function of most mail packages are
supported, replying will seldom work, so make sure to forward and not
reply.

I DON'T buy anything from spammers, and I KEEP TRACK OF WHO SPAMS ME.
I put up with ads on the TV because they pay for programming. When
spammers pay for the Internet, then I'll start putting up with spam.
