I gave you a response on 5/3 within 10 minutes of your post. You didn't
respond and here you are asking the same question again.

I get a few every day. Agent's junk detection catches all of them. The
same applies to all my email accounts, no spam or malware gets
through.

I'm not seeing any post by "hank23" on May 3 in this newsgroup, nor your
reply to him on that date. This server (AIOE) is not showing any post
from you on May 3.

I don't see any other post by hank23 other than the single post he made
on Monday that started this thread.
