RE: member

I'm wondering if someone is spoofing the gardenchat address from your or
David's association.  Bill and I just discovered someone is spoofing our
main e-mail address.  We had to quit using one of our favorites because of
the same thing.  There doesn't seem to be a good defense against someone
using a person's (groups') e-mail address to send things to others.  (We got
a delivery failure on something we never sent, or we wouldn't even know
about it.)

Strange, isn't it. If not a member, wonder how they got access to the
list?... Chris?
