I am posting this in regard to an e-mail I recieved today which spooked me a bit. Someone, presumably from TFL, sent me an e-mail titled "9MM or 40 S&W?". Since the title was gun related I opened it. When I did, I found a short message in about size 24 font concerning something on which my opinion is well known to regular TFL members. Add the that the fact that there were a number of misspelled words and the whole thing just didn't look right.
Frankly, It spooked me. I immediatly deleted the message and ran a virus scan. Thankfully it came up clean. Sorry to say that I got in a hurry and didn't note the senders address except that I did not recognize it.
I am always happy to recieve e-mail from TFL members and if I can offer advise to the many new shooters out there, I will be glad to answer your questions. However, last year I was severly bitten by an e-mail transmitted virus. I'm a bit gunshy, if you know what I mean.
Therefore it is my personal policy to delete unread any e-mail that has a name, address or subect I do not recognize. If you wish to contact me, by all means do so as I'd be happy to hear from you. But, PLEASE, make sure I will know who sent it from either the name, address or subject title. Otherwise you will not get an answer. I think this is a reasonable precaution and suggest everyone adopt a similar policy.
If the person who sent me that questionable e-mail is a member of TFL who was merely seeking my opinion, I offer my apologies. Feel free to send it again with info which will have me to open it and I will be happy to reply.
I apologize for taking up space on this board to post a personal message. However, I just didn't know any other way to get this info out.
