> Subject: ATTENTION Parkinsn: There is no MJ Fox SCAM > From: John Cottingham <[log in to unmask]> > Date: Wed, 11 Jul 2001 22:48:12 -0500 On the computer we send the list messages to at [log in to unmask], there is a program that responds to a message sent to it. If you have posted a message to Parkinsn you have probably received an email thanking you for writing. It is not a listserv problem. It is a Michael J Fox problem because list messages are answered by his program and it picks up the return address of whoever posts to Parkinsn or CARE if he is a member there also. The message is an old one and lists the address and phone number they used before they moved to where ever they are now. This is not a scam but a faux paux on their part. Another member, who works for a pharmaceutical company is off work and her autoresponder message is sent to who ever posts to Parkinsn and CARE also. I have deleted the Michael J. Fox subscription and have set the other account to nomail so you should receive no more erroneous information as the result of your posting to Parkinsn. Neither Barbara or myself have ever received a complaint about these episodes. It would seem that if a problem exists, the list management who has the power to fix things, would be notified before wild hypothesis are presented on the list. This scam business has wasted time and bandwidth. Let's move on.
