WINDOWS MESSENGER

[Mike Daniels <de...@tiscali.co.uk>]

My new computer will not download certain files. The system tells me I must install Windows Messenger £89  !!! Will your system do what I need?

Thanks.  Mike Daniels

Yes.  Users in trouble will go anywhere they know about.  This might be spam, it might be a genuine distress call.

I recommend that it be treated as genuine.  Distressed users are a concern for us all.

As it was not spam I moderated it in on the basis (reflected in a recent
policy statement on -dev) it's the community's job to respond to

this mail was moderated, I am not sure if such completely off topic
emails should be filtered or not. I personally filter this kind of mails
out where I see no relation between the email and the purpose of the list.

Just my 2 ct
