Statement on Spam and VoteNader.org
ang...@votenader.org
You may have received spam email recently that appears to come from our
campaign, or be about our campaign -- perhaps the "From" and or
"Reply-to" addresses look like they are coming from VoteNader.org. Or
perhaps you have received a message that appears to come from an
individual (if the address is real, the real owner probably did not send
this email either) with suppressed recipients. Or maybe you received an
email that appeared to come from yourself promoting our site.
These messages are NOT from Nader for President 2004, and these email
tactics are NOT condoned by our campaign in any way.
UPDATE: Some of the latest forged emails have been made to appear to be
coming from naderexplore04.org. Again, we are not responsible for this
unfortunate abuse of email, and there is little in the technical sense
that we can do to prevent this as it has nothing to do with our actual
infrastructure. We are collecting information.
NOTE: The emails with malicious code (viruses, worms, etc.) often have
attachments. Our campaign will NEVER send attachments in our
announcement emails to you. Please be sure that you have anti-virus
software and have the latest updates available for your anti-virus
software.
Our hosting service has alerted us to say that Nader for President 2004
appears to be the target of what is called a "Joe Job." Such an event is
where a spammer forges email to make it appear to have come from some
other domain (such as ours -- or yourself). This is hard to prevent on
our end and part of the insecure nature of the email protocol in
general.
Members of our actual email list must request to receive email from us
(either through Ralph's signup sheets or subscribing during our
exploratory phase, or now on our campaign site). When one signs up for
email they must reply to a confirmation message before they receive our
list announcements.
Our public announcement emails come from "camp...@votenader.org,"
contain a "Paid for by Nader for President 2004" statement at the
bottom, and have "upd...@lists.votenader.org" in the "To:" header.
Unfortunately, some of these indicators can be forged as well.
Most of the Spam that we have received complaints about appear to be
forged from email addresses not associated with votenader.org (often
forged to appear to be coming from government email addresses), and have
our website code embedded in the body of the email with hidden tags that
contain random words that work to subvert anti-spam software.
If you are on our lists, you can ALWAYS unsubscribe at ANY time by
following the instructions included at the end of our announcements. You
can also use our unsubscribe page using the email address you signed up
with.
If you are receiving this SPAM, we extend our apologies.
We will pursue the spammers to the full extent of the law.

committees can be corrupt and motivated by
political issues than religious issues.
I honestly don?t think things are going to change in a day, but we must
try to reverse and stop the current wave of thoughts and actions going
against religions, religion must be set free.
May God give us all the ability to question the current system and
thoughts in place around us. May God bring the days soon when religion
is free.

Experience with pro-Israeli NSA.
Assalam u?Alekum all :)
During 20th of May 2002 and 24th of May 2002, I was doing a course. So
on Wednesday a man named Graham Sayers attended the class as teacher. I
honestly did not know what was going on, around me were only jewish
students in the class during that week, from all sorts of regions, like
African, Turkish, Asian and Irani, Pakistani jews.
This man was apparently from NSA, he openly threatened me and told me
that they will kill me. During the first half of the day he and his
students tried to communicate with me but failed as I was asleep. So I
went to a coffee shop at lunch time. He told the lady at counter that he
wants coffee, I said so did I, then he got a bit nervous (as I mostly
ask for capachino), he said in my case I don?t want any sugar, I thought
they were talking about normal sugar so I said I would like. During the
mean while there were three men dressed in black and blue stood at the
back and observed this in the back. He smiled. After taking the coffee I
don?t know my head and stomach started exploding I started getting a lot
of pain in my stomach, I felt a lot of pain in left side of my brain. He
and his friends had told the world that I want to commit suicide, he
came back to class and told me that I am going to die in front of all
his students.
He told me that Palestine has to go or else he and his NSA will kill me.
He said he is from NSA and no one question NSA?s authority. All those
jewish guys were working for sercret service, one of th
