You do realize that SPAM is a trademarked name used by Hormel. If you're refering to unsolicted email, it should not be in all capital letters. So, you're referring to "spam", not "SPAM," unless UoP has something against the meat product and doesn't want its students exposed to it. In that case, then we shall see how effective your upcoming SPAM (sic) blocking measures are.

I hate it when people spell "spam" like "SPAM." It bothers me almost as much as "MAC" and "IPOD."

I guess you didn't see my last message under comments. Doesn't look like you get too many comments so you might not be looking. It will be interesting to try ITG. Im a fan of Kyle Wade’s music. best, Monica (Ixax)
