I don't even bother to click the link. I looked at the email header and it doesn't look anything from Redhat, so I ignore it, to reduce the chance that I got spam even further. > This sounds like the spam for Microsoft Security Updates that went out > awhile ago...I just don't know how they got my work and home email > address... They could have gotten the email address just by monitoring this list. That's why I never use my personal email address for any mailing list. I created special account for that. When the spam for that address becomes unbearable, I just create a whitelist: only email comes from the list server is accepted. So far it hasn't been that bad. That way I manage to keep my work/personal email address clean from spam. Basically, my rule of thumb, if my email address ever shows in a search engine, it'll get spam. RDB -- Reuben D.
