As N-w posted - we have had some people abusing other people's email addresses. I personally have received emails from email address's of people on this site that weren't from them at all. Including one that was sent to me from Randall's email address - which he absolutely never sent.

I'm not saying that the email you received was or wasn't from Raj.

What I am saying is that you should email Randall at webmaster@linda-goodman.com
so that he can look into the matter and find out exactly who the email was from.

If you have the original email, check its full headers -- you, or Randall, should be able to tell whether it really came from raj, or was forged by a mischief-maker (or quite possibly a robot "harvester" program that skims websites to gather up all the emails to sell as lists to spammers).

Although I share your offense at receiving such a message, I am shocked at the way you have leaped to publicly accuse, insult, and name-call a fellow Knowflake. Do you really consider yours a constructive response? Is it appropriate to repond to a few lines with a personal, public attack that libels a person's reputation? Randall has the power to delete or edit messages, and bar Knowflakes who behave inappropriately - there is recourse here. Knowflakes need not stoop to insults, nor flamewars.

Ok so Raj should have tested the waters before coming on so strongly.

My Yahoo email id is rajini27_2000@yahoo.com and I have NO hotmail id as rajini27_2000@hotmail.com neither as rajini27@hotmail.com.

I have given my yahoo email id in Free-for-all (Topic: "Add me to your messenger")forum. Someone need not be even member of this site to send you such email. So it is NOT Me!

Anybody who would have noted my yahoo id can send you email under similar id.

Your mistake was giving your email address: imparteroftruth@yahoo.com. I too made this same mistake ofcourse.

btw, I dont know whether you are male or female even!

My advice for you: Change your yahoo email id imparteroftruth@yahoo.com ! Otherwise you will keep receiving such emails. Guaranteed.

Actually similar problem occured several months back and it was then Randall removed 'email id' links from posted messages. Such problems do occur on Internet astrotruth!

You could have emailed Randall first before posting topic like this. Anyway I could understand intention of he/she who had sent this email and you have just helped him/her.

The reason I addressed this post to you Shaun is because you were the first person to post about it - after what you had publically said about Raj, he had the right to response publically.

Now you have posted again........
Raj will want to defend himself against your accusations.....

It could get like a game of tennis.......

I never sent you any message.

I repeat: You should apologize. In forums Moderator takes all final decisions (I am sure you do not know this). Thereby Randall would tell what to do and you are expected to obey.

If you do not know how to contact Moderator -you have to email: webmaster@linda-goodman.com

astrotruth should apologize. astrotruth should post that I never sent astrotruth any message.

You can easily see this is only fair.

If this is impossible it is astrotruth's problem.

Also be aware all of the content of these posts is actually turned up in the Google search engine, so its highly possible that the same person who's been giving us the dirty spam problem is also responsible for this.

If this can't be sorted out by the Moderators on the Site - privately, then why doesn't everyone just back off and let them sort it out on the Forum without comment.

Whoever is lying will obviously delight in all the attention - good or bad - which they are getting, a bit like a naughty child really, or a very bored and boring person.

Someone is obviously playing games here and as no one knows anyone personally then who are we to decide who it is.

Astrotruth and Raj - I empathise with whichever one of you is telling the truth and the truth will always win in the end.
