so I fried my hard drive a few weeks ago and had little except
manuscripts backed up.  got a new hard drive and most of my very good
anti virus, mail cleaners, etc. had to be reinstalled.  I am trying to
get ready for a trip to Arizona and things are hectic so I am
reinstalling programs slowly. Few days after getting my computer back,
I started getting spam emails  at the tune of over 1000 daily.  I am
just deleting everything daily without trying to sort through it all
(and this was on my gmail account where i never get spam, or hardly
ever).

So, if you need to reach me by email, please put ASA in the header and
I will check by using the mail search function and keyword ASA.

I have all my mail cleaner software reinstalled but it doesn't seem to
be helping at all.  Also if anyone has any suggestions as to how to
stop the spam, let me know.

Apologies if I haven't gotten back to you: I probably just deleted
your email
