Just got a rather odd college email...

[MacBaine]

From: Mount St. Clare College
To: rfc822 Compliance issue To: added by system POTENTIAL SPAM

**This was followed by a list of about 2 THOUSAND names and email addresses**

**This was followed by about 500 lines of garbage**

/END


I found this very odd...

Are there any legal implications to sendng my email address out to 2000 random people? (Yes, my name was on the list) There has to be something wrong with this...

haha! your e-mail has been blacklisted!

 

[hdeck]

ha, that's nothing. somehow UT released my name, social security #, and birthdate in open access somewhere in their online records for 48 hours. talk about scary...

Is that Mount St. Clare College in Clinton, IA? I live right across the school from there and go to school in Clinton at the community college.

However, I don't believe these colleges can use give these addresses to anyone else. They got it when I put it on my last PSATACTASTA Test or whatever it was.... and they say they will not give it to anyone else.
