    The beatch is probably collecting our addresses for spam.

    To proof the theory:
    I will open the e-mail with a mail client with a new e-mail address (when I get home tonight) and see how much spam I will receive.
    I will give a report when I receive some significant spam or if I have not received any spam for days and days.

    I basicly never use html rendering, only when I am receiving e-mails from trusted senders (and mailing lists are ofcourse not
    trusted *grin* )

    Well spotted Felipe.

    Cheers,
    Jimmy
