WHat do you mean "how did I post spam?" I don't understand how you 
managed to post spam in a previous post here (in a newsgroup where the 
forum page specifically asks you NOT to post spam) then not understand 
how it got there. Please read the posting rules on the forum page so 
that you will know that spam should only be posted in .spam and 
discussed here or in the main spamcop newsgroup.

Also, please stop top posting and not snipping. It gets the conversation 
out of order and makes it hard for people to understand the context of 
your posts. Often, people who are able to assist you will just skip over 
posts where someone top posts and/or does not snip unnecessary quoting. 
The preferred method of netiquette is to snip any quoting you are not 
addressing in your reply and reply under each point you are replying to.
