This morning I was the victim of a "Spoof". I didn't know what a Spoof is but the effect was 260 separate, returned messages. I had to mark & delete every one of them. Not wanting to endure that again I called I.C. and spoke with Mike Brown. I learned that my e-mail address contained a "Catch All" in front of the @dupriest.com. 

Al that was needed toprevent this in the future was to remove that catch all which he did. He also explained it in detailed (which is mandatory when communicating with me!)

One caution; if you have several auto responders (HarvestCourt@dupriest .com for a home I have listed) those have to replace the missing "catch all" entry so they will not be blocked. If your responders are with I.C that is automatic when you register the auto responder.

I am posting this with the belief that it might happen to others if it hasn't already.

Kudos to a very knowledgeable and patient Mike Brown!
