This is ported from my old weblog. Originally published August 28, 2006

In the past to years, and even before, I used to get tons of SPAM of different types from my FRIENDS and members of yahoo groups I’m subscribed to. Of course this used to get me annoyed, and in most cases, the sender didn’t know that what s/he is sending is sort of SPAM, so, I used to send individual emails to these friends about it, and I got sick of how many messages I have to send weekly.

I thought I should send some general message to some of those, without turning myself into a SPAMMER as well! So, I started with a group whose main topic is Dr. Ahmed Khaled Tawfeeq, a great Egyptian writer who was originally known for his very special horror series. Sort of, I tend to consider some of the messages sent to that group SPAM, and I wrote about it. After finishing the message, I thought I should drop it here for general benefit.

Subject: Regarding the unrelated messages sent to this group

Hello all,

Hope you’re doing great.
