Dale,
APML was my first group, I was on it for a long time before I ever signed up
for a Yahoo group. I never received spam until I signed up on Yahoo groups.
Finally I dumped an email address I had for a long time because of spam, the
only thing I use this address for is email groups. It didn't take long for
me to start getting spam again when I put this new address on Yahoo groups.

I like APML the way it currently is set up, but I'll be here no matter what
Gene decides regarding this issue.
