> I know that, but I don't understand [i]why[/i] it's not classified as spam. Since more than one year we encounter at an average of two to six spam messages of this kind per week. I mark every single of these postings as spam when I get them. I assume, that also you and Alfie mark these postings as spam and I assume, this forum is not the only site, where these spam messages occure.
