Thank you Gaynor and Janet. It's good to know it seems genuine. I'm amazed how busy this board is. It took a while to find my message again. It's encouraging to know that so many people visit it every day. |

I've just put Quikcop in the search engine, and it seems to be legitimate. There's a website, and this is what it says:- "QuikCop is a revolutionary spam filter that monitors all of your incoming email, much like "Spam Police" might do. When a message comes to you, the QuikCop compares the message to your Friends & Acquaintances list to see if the message is acceptable to you. If it is, then it is delivered as normal. If not, then the message is put into a holding cell and an email response is sent to the sender of the message. The message explains to the sender that they are not on your list of Friends & Acquaintances, and therefore not allowed to send you email. However, if the sender would like to be allowed to send you mail, they click on a link and sign up on a web page that is made just for you and your Friends & Acquaintances. Once the person has signed up on your list, the mail they send you will be delivered and the jailed message is also delivered." So in other words, all you need to do is to click on a link and your message will be delivered. Hope this helps. |

After initiating contact with someone who has posted a name I am interested in I received a message from [email protected] asking me to say "Please accept this and all future e-mails of mine to [name of contact]" in order to rule out that my message was spam. Has anyone come across this before? Should I be wary of responding to this e-mail? Karin |
