The Shays-Meehan Spam Finance Bill

[Elias Sinderson]

I generally send mail from the UCSC account when it concerns my school
activities (classes, research, TA stuff, etc.), from the NASA account when it
concerns my work/research there, from my personal account to family, old school
chums, etc. and use the spam account to confirm my memberships, orders, etc.

FoRK just happens to fall into my UCSC account because I was on campus when Lisa
and Jim turned me on to the list last summer. Thank god for IMAP though, because
I wouldn't be able to do this with POP.
