Does it happen to anyone else?
I just got a P.M. from "0 posts + 0 threads newbe" with some religious b***s***.
Should I report it to Admin?

Done.
It looks like it was just to spread the link in the bottom of the message.

Hey...I got one too, but I'm new here so I wasn't sure - so I responded back. Thanks for the warning! I hate crap like that. Is there anyway we can block it from coming in?

SgurlEd,
They still sneak in.
But I banned this particular spammer.

I'll forward this one to you. I wonder if he is the same person that sent one to Leonid?

Do you mean this one?
Hi,
I'm new here, how's it going?
"Buddhism has the characteristics of what would be expected in a cosmic religion for the future: it transcends a personal God, avoids dogmas and theology; it covers both the natural & spiritual, and it is based on a religious sense aspiring from the experience of all things as a meaningful unity" - Albert Einstein

There was a Dutch guy complaining about these in another thread, sorry I don't remember which thread, Mike.
"Buddha pests" Heh heh that was good Arnie.
I haven't received messages from anything but real humans, usually forum members. I did have my email servers go flatline on me today because they were still querying an old antispam database which went malicious at about 1800Z on the 25th. It took me about 12 hours to figure out that things were too quiet... the final clue was that I'd stopped receiving not only personal and business email, but also spam. When you're not getting Viagra offers, it's a lead-pipe cinch your mailserver is hosed.
cheers

Another forum member called me the other night saying he got the same p.m. Strange, I didn't know Buddhists recruited.

I ordered a burger from a Buddhist street vendor... I said "Make me one with everything."
