Please don't do that. When you do, AOL considers it a complaint about NCDXA
and starts rejecting e-mail from NCDXA as spam for everyone else.

If you don't want NCDXA mail, tell me and I'll drop you from the reflector.
If you want to delete an e-mail don't hit the "Spam" button.

Let's be careful out there. :)
