Description Alain Knaff 2001-12-15 07:51:43 UTC
(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           bugs.kde.org
Version:           unknown (using KDE 2.2.2 )
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    SuSE
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (SuSE)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.4.16
OS/Compiler notes: 

I just got a piece of spam sent to an e-mail address that I have *only* used for reporting KDE bugs. Apparently spammers got somehow ahold of a list of addresses or of a webpage displaying addresses of submitters. Please consider blocking known e-mail harvesting bots: EmailSiphon EmailWolf ExtractPro ... as described on http://www.bignosebird.com/apache/a9.shtml
or on http://manatee.mojam.com/~skip/reject.html

In case it is relevant here are the headers of the spam:
