Subject: gnus dials up, when I read my spam
Date: 24 Jul 2002 15:58:31 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7wbs8xjkhk.fsf@i19.ruc.dk> (raw)


When i read a spam mail with HTML, gnus dials up to get some of the
images. I have an idea that some of the spammers are able to discover
that I have dialed up, and that this will result in me getting even
more spam. Therefore I would like to disable the dial-up feature.

How do I do this?

                Thanks in advance
                Niels

PS: I am using:
Gnus v5.8.6 on XEmacs 21.4 (patch 6) "Common Lisp" [Lucid]
