Hi Mitch

I cut and paste  an eMail that turned up in my post today. 
No doubt the sender is a member of this forum
who has trawled through the members list to obtain my eMail address. 
For the avoidance of any doubt, just stick "AMANIE DOUDOU " into google search box
Hopefully you will be able to trace the moron   .......

Grr.. yeah I hate this.   Grr..!!  I'll take a look and see what we can do on this end of things, but if you have it set in your profile settings to "allow others to see your e-mail address" then all somebody has to do is sign up and login and it is viewable.  Might check your profile settings there and I'll see what type of limits we can set on this end to keep this from happening again.

Talked with support about this, and we will need the e-mail headers so we can investigate this further.  Please drop in a support ticket to support@lunarpages.com with the e-mail headers and we'll get this resolved as soon as possible.  Thanks!

Hi and thanks Mitch.  I'm not particularly bothered that my eMail addy is shown in my profile. ...   after all - i put it there for forum members to find.

Not quite sure what you mean exactly by the email headers.,    The whole of the eMail received, together with what i can only guess are the Headers, is in my original post above.

I will forward the eMail to support in any case.... many thanks.  good work

Email headers show the routing information which we need to look into this.

The instructions for extracting e-mail headers from some of the more popular e-mail clients follows. If your e-mail client is not in the list, please let us know what your e-mail client is and we'll provide the necessary instructions.

   1. Click the "File" menu
   2. Click "Properties"
   3. Click the "Details" tab
   4. Click "Message Source"
   5. Highlight, copy and paste everything from this window (Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C)
===Outlook Express===
