As we disclosed in our "Internet Policy", we reserve the right to publish on our site an entire e-mail, including the e-mail address, name and the hidden header, if the e-mail contains viruses, threats, hacker attacks, repeated spam (more than one e-mail per month with the same subject), or anything that may be considered illegal or unethical.
Below is a list with e-mail addresses from which we may not accept e-mails, due to receiving repeated e-mails falling in one of the above mentioned categories. Read at the bottom of the page how you can remove your e-mail address and server/domain name from this list with "bad" guys.

If your e-mail or server/domain name is mentioned above, send us an e-mail requesting to be removed. In order to consider your request, you MUST copy and paste in your e-mail one the following messages:

1) "Acting in good faith, to the best of my knowledge:
- My computer was never willingly used for illegal or unethical activities, including threats, hacker attack, virus spreading.
- The e-mail never originated from my computer, and I believe that the header is faked; if the e-mail did originate from my computer, the problem is now resolved.
- I have installed an antivirus software on my computer; I am updating the virus definition file and check the entire computer weekly.
- I do not use on my computer any unauthorized software, or from unverified sources, which may contain viruses."
2) "Acting in good faith, to the best of our knowledge:
- Our server was never willingly used for illegal or unethical activities, including threats, hacker attack, virus spreading.
- The e-mail never originated from, or relayed through our server, and we believe that the header is faked; if we did have a problem, the problem is now resolved.
- We have installed an antivirus software on our server; we are updating the virus definition file and check the entire server weekly.
- We do not use on our servers any unauthorized software, or from unverified sources, which may contain viruses.
- When we discover that we have a problem with our server, such as a virus infection, or being used to relay viruses or hacker attacks, we are taking immediately all reasonable measures to stop it, including shutting down the server, if necessary."

 

To remove an user e-mail address, the e-mail must be sent from that specific e-mail.

The domain name will be removed only if the request for removal comes from the site webmaster, whose e-mail address is posted on the respective website.

Thanks for your cooperation,
Security officer on duty
 
 
Some advice from our Security officer on duty:
- Never open an attachment that ends in: .com, .exe, .bat, .lnk, .pif
- Make a copy of the e-mail header and send it to a law-enforcement agency, in charge with Internet threats.
- Use the services of an expert in Internet Security to track down the real origin of the threat, so you can understand who is doing it, why, and what are your options.
- Block all e-mails from unpaid/free e-mail accounts such as:
- *@yahoo.com
          - *@hotmail.com
- *@rediffmail.com
