[/EDIT] Hi there, hi Chris, OK, it's just a question, and no rant, but isn't sending third-party mail the first step for, err, let's say, spaming? I have big trust in CP, and I hope it will not be mistrayed. I was just wondering, cause it is usually not CPs style so send advertisement. Just got an email, starting with this: ... Allowing us to send you a single 3rd party email a month helps us enormously so we do appreciate your indulgence and trust you will help us keep CodeProject growing. ... altogether, I'll assist CP, once in a month is OK, once in a week too, but more than this....

:suss: :rolleyes: :suss:Olli what Spam did you get ? I haven't recieved anything but the newsletter. As a low numbered CPian I expect I'm one of the first to recieve any mail-outs. I remember ther was a case sometime back where bogus spoofed emails were appearing. Regardz Colin J Davies

It's something about a journal, for about 179$ a year or sth., if it's spoofed, then I apreciate, so if not, it is just a question, cause it has almost the look of CP and it's mostly programming related...

:suss: :rolleyes: :suss:Hi Olli, Just click on "My Settings" and uncheck the option Yes - in order to help CodeProject I'm willing to receive a monthly email with 3rd party offers. I understand that my name and email will not be provided to those third parties. Mind you, if everyone does that then Codeproject will be starved of funds & Chris will be out begging on the streets:omg: JohnJ Time for a :java::java::java: but no :vegemite: http://www.rainbow-innov.co.uk[^]

:suss: :rolleyes: :suss:As long as I don't get spam in style of "penis enlargements" or "earn free money!", I'm cool with it. I use this site and I don't pay for it. If Chris makes a few bucks on this, it's only fair - he does provide me with heavy drugs like The Lounge and The Soapboax. :-D -- In the land of the blind, be king! Some day, Dominion, some say prayers, now I say mine.
