Dear Subscribers to CIMIC Friends/Events Announcement List,
I hope everyone had relaxing holidays.
Recently, subscribers to this list have received spam. Unfortunately, the alias
to this list must have been published on a website or some place from where
spammers got hold of the email address. We apologize for this and have taken
steps to minimize the chances of this happening again.
We have retired the old alias and have made a new one that we don't reveal
anywhere on the web (and not even in the header or body of emails to this
list).
This should cut down spam on this list to ZERO in the immediate future and
hopefully for some time to come. In the meanwhile, we will look into more
secure ways of doing this for the long-term future.
Please let me know if you have any concerns/questions.
Best Wishes,
Naeem Sheikh
