Hello John,
nizora@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx is my email address. I am not sure how those
"Spammers" work ,but Ian  Manner is an expert in this field, and his comment
is self-explanatory.Thanks Ian.
If any member received a similar "annoying spam " with my return address,
please kindly forward it to me.Just curious.
Cheers,
Robert Kan
