there's one born every minute!


Are implying that Agent users don't get spam?


no, but Agent does allow different 'from' and 'reply-to' settings (not
sure that OE does) what one does with that to avoid spam is another
matter. OE defaults to advertising the real e-mail address to all and
sundry, Agent does not.

get yourself a decent newsreader client for a start


her news reader is not the source of her problem.


the way it 'defaults' to posting the real e-mail address (needed for
the e-mail bit) in its newsreader functions is a contributory factor
here, wouldn't you say?

and learn to snip, there's a good chap.
