Subject:	SCOUG-Help: Do Spammers Know When You're Online ?

Content Type: text/plain

I pick up most of my mail from dedicated webmail
gateways -- i.e., Earthlink has their own, SBC (now
AT&T) has one via Yahoo Mail. I see plenty of fresh
spam turning up *while* I happen to be at the gateway,
reading or disposing of mail, etc. I may just have
zapped 60 pieces of it there, emptying out the Bulk
Folder, and within a minute or two of having done so,
4 more junk items suddenly appear. Is this just a
coincidence, or am I in their crosshairs *while /
because* I am picking up mail ?
