What are the protective measures out there?, I mean, I do realize York has
a good "gatekeeper" but how do I notify guys at MSN.COM to take action
thank you.

Subject: PANAFRICA: possible spam from [log in to unmask]
The following message was submitted by [log in to unmask] to the PANAFRICA
list at YORKU.CA. It is being forwarded to you for verification because the
message has been identified as a possible "spam", that is, an advertisement or
other unsolicited material sent to large numbers of mailing lists with no
consideration for whether or not the material is appropriate for the lists it
is being sent to. A single "spam" can result in the delivery of millions of
unwanted e-mail messages worldwide, costing the victims and service providers a
total of several hundred thousand dollars. The cost to the spammer is usually
under five dollars. To be effective, a counter-measure must neutralize the spam
within the first five minutes. Consequently, there is no time for all the
LISTSERV servers to compare notes with each other before acting, and some
legitimate postings may be intercepted erroneously. If this is the case, simply
forward this message back to the list with an explanatory note.

The Staff at Radman Internet Brokers wish you all a very joyous Christmas and Happy New Year.
AJ Parker asked us to broadcast this message to as many people as we could and we hope that you will not be offended by the intrusion.
The 9:05 Christmas is a very simple idea involving the participation of millions of people who want to wish, hope, or pray, to give, or receive a miracle in the name of the Christ Child between 9:00 and 9:05 on Christmas Eve, 1996.
Please go to http://www.axionet.com/905christmas/ and listen to "The 9:05 Christmas"
If any of you have the time, please record it and hand it out to the cab drivers in your city. We are fulfilling a wish and hope it comes true for all the children of the world.
As the lyric says:
All it takes is ordinary people
People who love ordinary people
All it takes is ordinary people
For the Christ Child loves everyone.
May you always have a song in your heart!
