Eastern Front spam??????!
« on: April 08, 2011, 09:14:37 PM »
Over the past few hours i have been getting many queer and nonsensical spam letters in my electronic mail inbox, and i have no idea why. They all came from this address:
<yankfanw28@optonline.net>
It took me a long time to think of where i know that address from, and then i remembered... It was from when i donated to Eastern Front! So could somebody please explain to me why the hell i keep getting these letters?!

That's the email address that all mails sent over the forum (http://easternfront.org/forums/index.php?action=emailuser;sa=email;uid=4421 for your case). Disable this for your account to get rid of the spam.

So what you're saying is i should disable the ability for users to send me electronic mail via your forum?

Edit: Done.

O.K., i haven't gotten any more of that spam since i disabled that electronic mail thing, so i think it worked. Thanks Rizz. I'll let you know if it happens again, though.
